This book focuses on some of the main ethical and spiritual problems raised by the Holocaust. It is divided into two parts, addressing first the views and moral dilemmas of prominent Jewish thinkers and leaders such as Rabbi Leo Baeck, Dr. Viktor Frankl, and Rabbi Sh. Teichthal. The book's second half presents the authors own reflections on the problem of 'justification of religion' and faith after Auschwitz.
