The author addresses the question of how 'ordinary men' turn into killers by looking closely at the well-documented actions of one reserve police battalion in bringing Hitler's Final Solution to the villages of Poland. Interesting interpretation, well-documented, a different and more focused examination of the subject.

How regular cops and kids become murderers. They weren't monsters, they weren't madmen, they were 'just guys doing a job'. To explain is not to excuse and the understand is not to forgive, as the forward to the book puts it. Chilling.
