This book offers an excellent survey of up-to-date perspectives from historians on a variety of topics related to the Holocaust and specifically to the concentration camp system, including social interactions within the camps, the treatment of the camps after the Holocaust, the historical factors that led to the concentration camps, and much more. Of particular interest for historians are those areas in which the contributing authors identify that further research is needed to clarify or expand our knowledge.
