Massimo Introvigne (2007). Covenant.

The author traces the development of the Blood Libel Myth from antiquity to the present day against the backdrop of the Papal response to it. The significant role of the Vatican at several junctures in documenting the falsity of the Blood Libel myth and in prohibiting its promulgation is highlighted.
