Because of the magnitude of the event, its origins and effects present profound difficulties to scholars, educators and concerned laypeople.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in 1980 \u003ci\u003eSurvivors Victims and Perpetrators\u003c\/i\u003e overcomes many of those difficulties through a comprehensive, multidisciplinary analysis of the Nazi holocaust. Scholars from numerous fields collaborated to approach the phenomenon of the concentration camps from varying angles of perception.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first chapters consider the history of the concentration camps, anti-Semitism, and political opposition to the Nazis in Weimar Germany. The following chapters discuss the fate of concentration camp survivors, their physical and emotional health, their methods of coping with the stress of the camps, their responses to psychotherapy, and their children’s difficulties in facing such a legacy. The book concludes with analysis of the Nazis’ behavior. Excerpts from the autobiographies of Goebbels and Hoess present a brief sampling of their world view. These are followed by psychological studies of the possible determinants of SS behavior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chapters are sensitive, challenging works of scholarship remarkably free from the specialized language of each field. At the time, there was no comparable book that approached the concentration camps from such a multidisciplinary perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSurvivors Victims and Perpetrators\u003c\/i\u003e can be read on many levels. Intended for clinicians and students of psychology and psychiatry, it is conceptually accessible to readers in numerous other fields, including history, political science, and sociology. The book is a major contribution to courses in twentieth-century German history, political science, and Jewish studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoel E.
