Publishers cloth. 8vo. XXII, 310, [2] pages. 24 cm. First edition. In this work Jacques Adler, a former member of the French resistance, asks: Are people powerless when confronted with a State determined to destroy them? Why didn't more Jews survive the Holocaust? How did we survive? Did we, the survivors, do all that we could, at the time, to help more people survive? In answering these questions, Adler examines the diverse Jewish organizations that existed in Paris during the German occupation from 1940 to 1944. The first part of the book analyzes the national composition of the Jewish population, its expropriation and daily life. The remaining chapters discuss the roles, activities, and policies of various Jewish organizations as they supported Jews in their search for survival, alerted the non-Jewish population to the terrible threat faced by every Jewish family, and acted as representatives of the Jewish people-a role that led to inevitable administrative cooperation with the Nazis and Vichy. Combining careful scholarship with a survivor's zeal to set the record straight, Adler gives an insider's account of resistance members, whose determination was born of the pain and anger that came from the loss of loved ones, whose political ideology sustained them even when they faced the threat of starvation and the loneliness of clandestine existence, and whose anguish was all the more intense because they belonged to that community in Paris that was selected as fodder for the "Final Solution. " Thoroughly researched and drawing upon previously unavailable materials, Adler presents an important portrait of communal solidarity and communal conflict, of heroes and those whose courage failed.

Hardcover, viii, 345 pages, 8vo, 23 cm. Postwar look at the problems of denazification and reconstruction. Almond (1911-2002) was "a U. S. Political scientist, credited with inventing modern comparative political science. Born in Rock Island, Illinois, Almond was the son of Russian and Ukrainian immigrants. His father was a rabbi. A student at the University of Chicago, he went on to earn his doctorate in 1938; but his thesis, Plutocracy and Politics in New York City, was not published until 1998. The work contained psychoanalyses of several wealthy New Yorkers, including unflattering references to John D. Rockefeller, a principal benefactor of the university. Charles Merriam, chair of the political science department, refused to recommend the thesis for publication unless the offending material was removed. Almond refused. The thesis remained in the stacks of the University of Chicago library, where it became an underground classic among scholars. It was finally published by Westview Press. Almond taught political science at Brooklyn College from 1939. During World War II he was head of the Enemy Information Section at the War Information Office (1942-44) . After the war he was professor of political science at Princeton, Yale, and Stanford. He also taught at universities in England, Japan, Brazil, and the Ukraine. He was elected chairman of the Social Science Research Council's Committee on Comparative Politics and, in 1966, president of the American Political Science Association. Almond's Appeals of Communism (1954) , an empirical study of the attractions and weaknesses of Communism, was significant for its treatment of the psycho-sociological background of political behavior.

Softbound. 8vo. 448 pages. 22 cm. First edition. In German. Title translates as: 'Final solution': Nazi population policy and the murder of the European Jews. The author, Gotz Aly, born 1947, was an independent left-wing journalist for many years after being expelled from public institutions in 1976 under the Radicals Decree. In the last twenty years he has published a number of extensively researched volumes on the holocaust. His Final Solution analyses the direct linkage between the Nazi population movements and the extermination of the Jews. Making extensive use of Russian, German, and Polish archives, Aly has provided the most exact and detailed reconstruction of the Final Solution yet achieved. As well as looking at the ideological imperative in the Nazi state to solve the Jewish question and at Hitler's own role, Aly investigates the actions of those running the Reich Security Headquarters in Berlin and of those numerous lesser figures on the ground who were in the eye of the storm, grappling with the planning failures inherent in Nazi resettlement plans and experiencing mounting difficulties in trying to be rid of their Jews. Aly illustrates, through the evidence he builds into an overall mosaic, the lunacy of Nazi race policy, and the variety of agencies that went into the gradual shaping of a policy of all-out genocide. (American publishers description) . Gotz Aly, long a marginalized intellectual, in recognition of his precise historical research, was honored by the German President Horst Kohler with an appointment to the board of trustees of the Jewish Museum Berlin.
