Doctors Under Hitler
"A brilliant attempt to explain the profound historical crisis into which medicine had plummeted during the Nazi period with the tried methods of social history.--Historische Zeitschrift "The author has drawn from an extraordinary range of sources, and the weight of evidence he compiles will certainly give pause to anyone who still wants to believe that professionals kept their hands clean in this era of great and methodical crimes.--Journal of Modern History "Kater's important book deserves close attention from historians of medicine and German historians alike.--Isis In this history of medicine and the medical profession in the Third Reich, Michael Kater examines the career patterns, educational training, professional organization, and political socialization of German physicians under Hitler. His discussion ranges widely, from doctors who participated in Nazi atrocities, to those who actively resisted the regime's perversion of healing, to the vast majority whose ideology and behavior fell somewhere between the two extremes. He also takes a chilling look at the post-Hitler medical establishment's problematic relationship to the Nazi past. -->

Historians and Archivists
The essays in this volume, which are based primarily on the captured German documents in the National Archives, deal with several of the major topics in recent German and European history: German intelligence operations in the United States during the first World War; the controversies over Ernst V. Weizsaecker and Kurt Waldheim; German occupation policies and the German resistance to Hitler; Allied attempts to re-educate the Germans at the end of the second World War, and German plans for a post-War German government. These essays also illustrate the benefits of a close-working relationship between historians and archivists and demonstrate how great an influence archivists can have on the work of historians. As Don Wilson points out in the preface to this volume, "Books about archives, archivists, and the role they play in the writing of history are rare indeed...." This is such a book and its value and significance lie in its ability to acquaint the reader with some of the problems archivists and historians are facing at the present time; this understanding should lead, in turn, to a better appreciation of the writing of history and the administration of archives.
