"[This] valuable book is a striking reminder of the larger purposes of law in civilized societies. At the same time it affords a depressing insight into the deficiencies and inadequacies of the supposed de-nazification of the West German legal system and of section of German society." --Times Literary Supplement "This short book is of extreme importance... [It] is a book to ponder." --Martin Gilbert, The New York Times "Here is the first comprehensive account of the complicity of the major German industrial firms in crimes against humanity through their exploitation of Jewish slave labor during the Hitler era." --Lucy Dawidowicz
