The great majority of Holocaust scholarship concentrates heavily,
if not almost completely, on the Final Solution from the German
side. The distinctive feature of this book, both individually and
as a collection, is its concentration on the Holocaust from a
Judeo-centric point of view. The present essays make a unique
contribution by exploring issues such as: the effect of events
specifically on Jewish women and children; the character of the
Nazi policy of slave labor in as much as this essential program
resulted in different treatment with regard to Jews as compared to
other workers; how the destruction of European Jewry has been
responded to by Jewish thinkers; and how Jewish values, such as the
well-known principle that "all Jews are responsible for each
other," were exemplified and lived out during the war. The
collection also includes an essay on Elie Wiesel, and another that
explores the much discussed, very controversial issue of Jewish
resistance, as well as several essays on philosophical and
comparative issues raised by the Shoah.
