In Bearing Witness To The Holocaust 1939-1989, Alan Berger has brought togehter a compendium of outstanding articles drawn from particpants in the Nineteenth Annual Scholars' Conference on the Holocaust and the Church Struggle, held in Philadelphia, March 5-7, 1989. This benchmark publication is divided into several sections: Survivor Testimonies; Philosphical Responses; Religious Responses; Literary and Artistic Responses; and The Aftermath. From Herbert Hirsch's Survival and Suicide: Primo Levi and the Crisis of the Twentieth Century, to Marta Rosenbloom's Bearing Witness by Holocaust Survivors: Implications for Mental Helth Tehory and Practice, the work comprising Bearing Witness To The Holocaust 1939-1989 is simply outstanding, rendering it an essential addition to all Holocaust studies reading lists and reference collections.
