| Summary: | It is unlikely that many readers will read this densely packed volume from cover to cover, as I did in preparation for this review. Those who choose to do so will be impressed by the scope, depth, and analytical sophistication to be found within this relatively new area of research. Many of the contributing authors, scholars of distinction in their specific sub-fields, are well-known for their work on the Holocaust: Richard Levy, Eric Weitz, Doris Bergen, Christopher Browning, Debórah Dwork, Robert Ericksen, Martin Dean, Peter Fritzsche, Sara Horowitz, James Young, Deborah Lipstadt, Jeffrey Herf, Lenore Weitzman, Dan Michman, Henry Greenspan, and Rebecca Wittmann, to name just a few. |
