In 1941, the fortress city of Terezin outside Prague was converted into an ostensibly "model" ghetto for Jews. Actually it was a way station to Auschwitz. Gonda Redlich, who grew up in Moravia and became interested in youth work, was deported to Terezin in December 1941. The ghetto elders selected him to be in charge of the youth welfare department where he was responsible for the housing, care, and education of thousands of children who eventually passed through Terezin. Before his own deportation to Auschwitz, Redlich concealed this diary in Terezin, where it was discovered in 1967. A significant document of Holocaust experience, it reveals the hope and despair of daily life in the ghetto..

the nonsense machine that makes all of her wailing and
other naughty noises. And there are lots of Noise-a-matron workers—
Noolman, Tubswort & Co.—who make sure her misbehavior
machine is always going full blast.

Now what?

Come on inside for a jabberwocky journey from noise-some to joysome
in this phantasmagoric circus of a book..

In 1910 the Carnegie Foundation released its first study of graduate education: the Flexner report on medical education. American medical education is already celebrating the centennial of this report, which changed the face of medical education by emphasizing the scientific basis of practice. Four years later the Foundation authored its first report on legal education, the Redlich Report, which like the Flexner Report, emphasized the scientific basis of practice. For whatever reason perhaps because legal education was less receptive to change than was medical education, perhaps because the report s author came from one of the Central Powers with which the United States was shortly to go to war the Redlich Report did not change the face of legal education. Today, legal education is much the same as it was in 1914. In 2007 the Carnegie Foundation returned to legal education and issued a new report, Educating Lawyers: Preparation for the Practice of Law. In analysis of American legal education, the two reports are eerily similar. But they are very different in their prescriptions for the future. The new report is intended to foster appreciation for what legal education does at its best. Its modest prescription for the future is an increase in clinical education. The Redlich Report, on the other hand, in its import is not limited to legal education. It is a calm but ambitious call to invigorat[e] the principle of social and economic justice in the life of the American people. The Redlich Report is must reading for any discussion of the future of American law. It brings to American legal education a perspective that no report before or since could. It reminds contemporary legal educators of their responsibility for the legal system. This re-issue of the Redlich Report is introduced by an essay by James R. Maxeiner that critically compares the two reports. The aim of the book is the reform of American law on a scientific basis. The book includes a reprint of the 1914 report: The Common Law and the Case Method in American University Law Schools by Josef Redlich.

This book provides the first analysis of Hitler's life by a trained MD and practicing psychiatrist. Focusing especially on his medical and mental history, Redlich shows us precisely how Hitler's physical and mental health influenced his beliefs and behavior. Drawing upon medical records of Hitler's World War I injuries and subsequent illnesses, combined with a penetrating exploration of Hitler's writings, Redlich offers new insight into Hitler's vision of himself as a prophetic leader. The final chapter offers a psychiatric portrait of Hitler, and it is here that Redlich's analysis reveals the highly combustible mixture of denial, projection, sexual repression, paranoid delusion, and narcissistic rage that transformed Hitler from an aimless, friendless, and vaguely resentful youth into the most destructive force of the twentieth century. Complete with illustrations, critical medical reports by Hitler's personal physicians, and a medical glossary, this book brings to light the darkest recesses of one of the world's most impenetrable minds..
