The author approaches these profound issues and the bystander-victim relationship from both personal and legal perspectives, focusing on the Holocaust and exploring examples from current society. He recounts the experiences of his parents and ancestors during the Holocaust, analyzing sexual assault cases and other crimes at Vanderbilt and Stanford universities where bystanders chose not to intervene.
Reader comments
This book is very in-depth, as the author explores social issues such as the Holocaust through personal experience and legal perspectives, and also analyzes the psychology of bystanders. I like the words of the Holocaust survivor in the book, "You have to listen to the call of your soul." This sentence is very inspiring. I admire the author for being brave enough to explore these sensitive topics.
