"The Road to Auschwitz" is the autobiography of Hedi Fried, a
fifteen-year-old living in Sighet, Romania, when war breaks out in
1939. In March 1944, Hedi's family, along with three thousand other
Jews from her village, are confined to a ghetto, awaiting shipment
to Auschwitz. In Auschwitz, amidst the horror, Hedi turns twenty,
her sister, Livi, fifteen. As Hedi and Livi will later learn, their
parents do not survive.
In April 1945, the sisters are transported to Bergen-Belsen, two
months before liberation. Upon liberation, Hedi renews her
acquaintance with Michael, another survivor from Sighet. They move
to Sweden, marry, and eventually have three sons. It is the loss of
Michael, when Hedi is only forty, that prompts this memoir. "It
took me forty years to realize that I am a witness and that it is
my task to tell what I experienced."

Communication problems between science and the courts are widely
deplo red and sometimes exploited by a variety of groups. The U.S.
Supreme C ourt has twice tightened the law of evidence to control
the flow of in formation, but amazingly little has been written to
analyze the nature of the problem and reduce the barriers. Expert
Witnesses: Explaining and Understanding Science results from the
first-hand experience of th e contributors-who include scientists,
expert witnesses, litigators, a nd a judge-that the cultural and
interdisciplinary communications barr iers between science and the
law can be greatly reduced to everybody's advantage if the parties
understand and respect each other's needs an d positions.
