Gideon Greif is a researcher at Yad VaShem, Israel, the principal institution in the world studying the history of the Holocaust. He also was visiting professor at The Sue and Leonard Miller Center for Contemporary Judaic Studies at the University of Miami.
"Gideon Greif’s documentation and analysis of the inner world of
the Jews who were forced to be part of the Grief in Auschwitz is a
haunting reading experience. It is with rare sensitivity and
empathy that Greif approached the last survivors of this unit, who
were at the heart of the inferno. They poured their hearts
out to him after long decades of silence. The reader is thus
acquainted with the detGrief’sails of the death industry, and they
accompany and disturb him for a long while."—Dina Porat, Head
of the Rosenberg School of Jewish Studies, Tel Aviv
University
"This is a book that must be read by all who dare draw close to the
killing, those who dare to come close—as close as non-survivors can
come—to the inferno."—Michael Berenbaum
