Book Description

February 16, 2009
Nazi Nexus is the long-awaited wrap-up in a single explosive volume that details the pivotal corporate American connection to the Holocaust. The biggest names and crimes are all there. IBM and its facilitation of the identification and accelerated destruction of the Jews; General Motors and its rapid motorization of the German military enabling the conquest of Europe and the capture of Jews everywhere; Ford Motor Company for its political inspiration; the Rockefeller Foundation for its financing of deadly eugenic science and the program that sent Mengele into Auschwitz; the Carnegie Institution for its proliferation of the concept of race science, racial laws, and the very mathematical formula used to brand the Jews for progressive destruction; and others.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Backed by exhaustive research, Black's case in IBM and the Holocaust is simple and stunning: that IBM facilitated the identification and roundup of millions of Jews during the 12 years of the Third Reich … Black's evidence may be the most damning to appear yet against a purported corporate accomplice. --Michael Hirsch, Newsweek

DRAMATIC AND LUCID. Lucid, dramatic and thought-provoking discoveries. Astory that should be read by everyone concerned about the strange realities of our modern world. An indispensable contribution. --Martin Gilbert, author A History of the Twentieth Century, Churchill: A Life and First World War

EDWIN BLACK IS A DANGEROUS MAN. Edwin Black is a dangerous man. He tells us things we don't want to hear, like: "The scientific rationales that drove killer doctors at Auschwitz were first concocted on Long Island." His groundbreaking work is scary and necessary. --Adrienne Miller, Esquire Magazine

5.0 out of 5 stars Required Reading March 15, 2009
Format:Paperback
This book should be required reading for many programs (business, medicine, social sciences, etc...). Dr. Black has done an amazing job of summarizing several of his books. After reading Nazi Nexus, you will want to obtain and read some of his books that are more comprehensive. On the emotional side of things, I would also warn professors using this book to spend a little time with students examining the shock many will feel while they read this. My own area is criminal justice and this book would work in many courses, e.g. organized crime, white-collar crime, etc...Dr. Black combines history, sociology, criminology, and economics into an integrated approach that has major implications for future policy. I will be reading War Against the Weak next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Its time we knew the truth February 1, 2010
By Albert
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Excellent book. Author has spent years researching how Hitler received help from Americans as well as American corporations. It has taken many years for the truth to be known. Jews living in Europe didn't have a chance.The Nazis had so much help from IBM,Ford, GM and other corporations that its a miracle that more Jews weren't murdered in cold blood.

5.0 out of 5 stars With a Little Help From My Friends July 3, 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
That's what Adolph was probably singing as he invaded Poland. His friends? Ford, GM, IBM to name a few.

The book may be short, but it is long on information on American businesses involved with Hitler's Germany. I was amazed at how U.S. businesses and Foundations actually made the Nazi war machine not only viable, but also more efficient.

It is truly pathetic how greed trumps ethics. And what is worse is that these corporations like Ford, G.M. and I.B.M. and their CEOs were already wealthy beyond anything imaginable at that time.

One section covers the Nation City Lines conspiracy. It doesn't actually connect to the Nazi nexus, but it just shows how unscrupulous these big U.S. businesses were.

I was not expecting the ending, and it totally took me by surprise. Great book!
