Highly recommended * CHOICE * Women in the Holocaust is a powerful book. It is powerful because of the nuanced account of female experiences to which Holocaust research has paid less attention so far. And it is powerful because it places womens voices at the centre. All in all, Waxman has accomplished a detailed and at the same time comprehensible analysis of the social category gender for Holocaust studies. Therefore, the book is suitable for both the already well-informed and the less-informed reader. * Helga Amesberger, European History Quarterly Vol. 48.1 *
