"Ordinary Men" has been acclaimed worldwide and is now available for the first time in the UK. It is based on detailed records of one of the Nazi extermination groups and thoroughly explores the composition, actions, and training methods used to commit genocide on an industrial scale. It presents to us the enthusiastic, friendly, ordinary men who killed without hesitation or apparent remorse for years, obeying an authority they willingly accepted as legitimate. It serves as a valuable correction to the idea of German uniqueness and offers a much more chilling view of human nature, as susceptible to influence and desperately seeking an organizational purpose in their lives, no matter how repugnant it may be.
