Books Sought

I am looking for good books on the following topics. The books should not just describe facts like history books by NCERT. It should interprete events with an eye of anthropologist or socialogist. Your suggestions are solicited:

a) A book on the history of Jews dating back to centuries before Christ was born. It should discuss how Jews were fled away from their homeland, how they became good in money making business, how Wall St was built by the Jewish, how Jews used to fund wars, etc.

b) A book encompassing 2000 yrs old history of Japan describing why Japanese seemingly have dual personality. I feel Japanese are deligent, responsible and polite but internally they are brutal and are always ready to invade others. I may be wrong. I also want to know the hierarchy in Japanese society describing the status of normal people and that of Samurais. I want read from the perspectives of both Japanese and others.

c) A book on Nazi and Hitler which should describe why Nazi used to hate the Jews. May be Mein Kempf ??
