A Stand Against Tyranny: Norway's Physicians and the Nazis

By Maynard M. Cohen

Book Overview

This volume presents the historical events surrounding Norway's physicians during the Nazi occupation of Norway. Throughout, two principle themes are interwoven: the valour, dedication and contribution of Norwegian physicians to the Resistance Movement and the country's century-long progression from a position of official intolerance to a humanitarian state that functions at times as the conscience of the world.
