Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) Victims and Survivors of Nazi Human Experiments
Trade ReviewWeindling’s monograph is the first comprehensive inquiry to treat coerced experimentation as a distinct object of study, right down to the gory details of the tests themselves. In that vein, the book makes a tremendous contribution to existing scholarship by addressing the hitherto neglected experiences and perspectives of the victims ... An important and thought-provoking study that warrants the full attention of specialists in the field for its sophisticated documentation and revelatory insights. -- Bradley J. Nichols, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA * German History *In this important book, Paul Weindling combines detailed original research and great sensitivity to produce a compelling study of an often-misunderstood subject. With clarity and nuance, he details the brutality of the Nazis' experiments but never forgets the humanity of the victims. The result is a genuine contribution to the scholarship on the Third Reich and its terrible crimes. * Dan Stone, Professor of Modern History, Royal Holloway, University of London *Table of ContentsForeword: Experiments Beyond the Nuremberg Paradigm 1.

Lexington Books The YMCA at War
Book SynopsisThis collection examines the Young Men’s Christian Association’s support for soldiers and civilians during World War I and World War II. The contributors approach the topic from various angles and argue that the YMCA’s efforts routinely resulted in conflict with governments, other civic organizations, and individuals.Trade ReviewA diverse and compelling edited volume, The YMCA at War reveals a new social understanding of twentieth century warfare. The Y’s global reach and immense influence in wartime make its social-service soldiers an intriguing counterpart to the soldiers on the battlefield. -- Jon Davidann, Hawai'i Pacific UniversityIt is a pleasure to read such a comprehensive and deeply engaging discussion of the YMCA’s wartime programs around the globe and their attendant critical discourses. This collection vividly illustrates the complexity and intersectionality of race, ethnicity, gender, and social class confronting the Y secretaries in their highly contested humanitarian endeavors. The YMCA at War is a major gift to scholars, educators, and practitioners who grapple with the challenges of an increasing globalized political economy today. -- Jun Xing, California State University, Los AngelesTable of ContentsForeword, Matthew Lee MillerIntroduction: Collaboration and Conflict: The YMCA at War, Jeffrey C.
