This article focuses on the book "Gestapo: Instrument of Tyranny," by Edward Crankshaw. This book is no nationalistic or "racial" indictment of Germans. "In all modern societies," writes Crankshaw, "there are men and women who, released from all restraints, will behave like beasts toward their fellows." Only in Russia and Germany have they come to power. This timely and shocking study does not "explain" the hideous inhumanity which it so ably recounts. This would be to ask too much, since the best of political scientists and psychiatrists remain baffled by the problem.
