Nazi Germany and the Jews

This history of the Jews in Nazi Germany and the regime's policies towards them combines a number of different approaches. The book sets Nazi anti-semitism in the context of German history from the late-19th century onwards, the stresses of German modernization, Hitler's own personal role and the ways in which Hitler interacted with the wider Nazi party and state, the anti-semitism of German society and the varied experiences and actions of the Jews themselves. The result is an examination that never loses sight of the experiences of individuals in its discussion of Nazi policies and the terrible statistics and technological and administrative sophistication of the Final Solution.
