Mein Kampf, Hitler’s mix of autobiography and anti-Semitic rant, was one of the bestsellers of the first half of the twentieth century, and it continues to sell almost twenty thousand copies in English each year.
And see:
SPIEGEL: Do you think it's essential for Germans to read this now, 67 years after the end of the war?(Both links are from http://www.realclearhistory.com)
Hartmann: We want to set an intellectual debate in motion. In doing so, we're not simply confronting society with the raw material, as some do. We point out where Hitler's ideas came from, how much truth they do or don't contain, and what significance they had for the Nazis' ideologies and policies. It's revealing, for example, to contrast Hitler's racial theories with scientific findings on human genetics.
