Zydzi w Lodzi pod niemiecka okupacja 1939-1945

Takes issue with Polish historiography on the Holocaust, especially the works of Artur Eisenbach and works on the Jewish Councils (e.g., by Isaiah Trunk, A.W. Jasny, and others). Ch. 1 (pp. 63-144) traces the evolution of Nazi anti-Jewish policies. The rest of the book describes the establishment of the ghetto in Łódź and conditions there, focusing on Rumkowski, the head of the Judenrat, and his activities. Argues that Rumkowski's opposition to revolt was the only possible policy in the conditions created by the Nazis, and because of this attitude the ghetto was not liquidated until 1944, permitting some of its inhabitants to survive. Emphasizes the participation of Poles in the destruction of the Jews, or their indifference to it.
