The Doctors of the Warsaw Ghetto
Based on years of archival research, ‘The Doctors of the Warsaw Ghetto’ is the most detailed study ever undertaken into the fate of more than 800 Jewish doctors who devoted themselves, in many cases until the day they died, to the care of the sick and the dying in the Ghetto. The functioning of the Ghetto hospitals, clinics and laboratories is explained in fascinating detail. Readers will learn about the ground-breaking research undertaken in the Ghetto as well as about the underground medical university that prepared hundreds of students for a career in medicine; a career that, in most cases, was to be cut brutally short within weeks of them completing their first year of studies.
Secret City
Poles, Germans, and the Jews themselves were largely unaware, they formed what can aptly be called a secret city. Paulsson challenges many established assumptions. He shows that despite appalling difficulties and dangers, many of these Jews survived; that the much-reviled German, Polish, and Jewish policemen, as well as Jewish converts and their families, were key in helping Jews escape; that though many more Poles helped than harmed the Jews, most stayed neutral; and that escape and hiding happened
Polin
"Established in 1986 by the Institute for Polish-Jewish Studies, 'Polin : Studies in Polish Jewry' has acquired a well-deserved reputation for publishing authoritative material on all aspects of Polish Jewry. Contributions are drawn from many disciplines -- history, politics, religious studies, literature, linguistics, sociology, art, and architecture -- and from a wide variety of viewpoints. Under an editorial collegium headed by Antony Polonsky and François Guesnet, volumes are published annually with each volume devoted to a different theme."--

Teaching Professional Attitudes and Basic Clinical Skills to Medical Students
This concise, easy to read title is designed for clinical teachers looking to refine their approach to teaching professional attitudes and basic skills to medical students. Doctors differ in values, training and practice setting, and eventually they adopt diverse approaches to patient interviewing, data collection and problem-solving. As a result, medical students may encounter significant differences in the clinical methods of their tutors. For example, some doctors encourage patients’ narratives by using open-ended questions while others favor closed-questions; and hospital- and community-based doctors may disagree on the value of the physical examination. Medical students may be puzzled by these differences and by controversies about issues, such as doctor-patient relations and the approaches to clinical reasoning. This handy title is intended to help tutors address many of these issues, and to provide an approach not only to teaching patient interviewing and the physical examination but to teaching some clinically relevant topics of the behavioral and social sciences that are so vital to developing an effective, well-rounded physician.
Living under the Evil Pope
In Living under the Evil Pope, Martina Mampieri presents the Hebrew Chronicle of Pope Paul IV, written in the second half of the sixteenth century by the Italian Jewish moneylender Benjamin Neḥemiah ben Elnathan (alias Guglielmo di Diodato) from Civitanova Marche. The text remained in manuscript for about four centuries until the Galician scholar Isaiah Sonne (1887-1960) published a Hebrew annotated edition of the chronicle in the 1930s. This remarkable source offers an account of the events of the Papal States during Paul IV’s pontificate (1555-59). Making use of broad archival materials, Martina Mampieri reflects on the nature of this work, its historical background, and contents, prov...

»...und ihrer aller wartet der Strick.«
Nur einen Tag nach dem Umsturzversuch vom 20. Juli 1944 übernahm das Reichssicherheitshauptamt den Gefängnisflügel D der »Haftanstalt Zellengefängnis« in Berlin-Moabit. In den folgenden Monaten waren hier mehr als 540 Gefangene inhaftiert. Viele von ihnen wurden vom »Volksgerichtshof« zum Tode verurteilt und im Strafgefängnis Berlin-Plötzensee durch den Strang oder das Fallbeil hingerichtet. Sogar noch während der sowjetischen Offensive auf Berlin, zwischen dem 22. und 24. April 1945, kam es zur Ermordung von achtzehn Häftlingen. Dieses Buch geht zunächst der Entstehung und Entwicklung des Zellengefängnisses in der Lehrter Straße 3 und seiner Bedeutung in der nationalsozialist...
