Christopher R. Browning is professor of history at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington. He is a contributor to Yad Vashem's official twenty-four-volume history of the Holocaust and the author of two earlier books on the subject.
"A remarkable--and singularly chilling--glimpse of human behavior.
. .This meticulously researched book...represents a major
contribution to the literature of the
Holocaust.--Newsweek
"A staggering and important book, a book that manages without
polemic to communicate at least an intimation of the
unthinkable."--Chicago Tribune
"Helps us understand, better than we did before, not only what they
did to make the Holocaust happen but also how they were transformed
psychologically from the ordinary men of [the] title into active
participants in the most monstrous crime in human
history."--New York Times Book Review
"It is the care with which Browning examines the evidence, as well
as the soberness of his conclusions, that gives this work such
power and impact."--Kirkus Reviews
