Ordinary Men has been admired all over the world and is now published in the UK for the first time. It takes as its basis the detailed records of one squad from the Nazis' extermination groups and explores in detail its composition, its actions, andthe methods by which it was trained to perform acts of genocide on an industrial scale. He introduces us to cheerful, friendly, ordinary men who killed without hesitation or apparent remorse for years on end, in docile obedience to an authority theyhappily accepted as legitimate. It is a valuable corrective to the idea of German uniqueness and offers a much more chilling picture of human beings as avidly suggestible and desperate for an organising purpose in their lives, however disgusting.

  1. Fantastisk bok!
    Jack Roger Thomas Shepherd, 15 mars 2017

    En oerhört intressant bok som tar upp viktiga aspekter - som tidigare inte pratats om i denna utsträckning - i en konflikt som har så många lager och ingångsvinklar.
