Barbie Zelizer reveals the unique significance of the photographs taken at the liberation of the concentration camps in Germany after World War II. She shows how the photographs have become the basis of our memory of the Holocaust and how they have affected our presentations and perceptions of contemporary history's subsequent atrocities. Impressive in its range and depth and illustrated with more than 60 photographs; Remembering to Forget is a history of contemporary photojournalism; a compelling chronicle of these unforgettable photographs; and a fascinating study of how collective memory is forged and changed."[A] fascinating study. . . . Here we have a completely fresh look at the emergence of photography as a major component of journalistic reporting in the course of the liberation of the camps by the Western Allies. . . . Well written and argued; superbly produced with more photographs of atrocity than most people would want to see in a lifetime; this is clearly an important book."—Omer Bartov; Times Literary Supplement

Adam smith makes a real examination of human behavior rather than a simple statement of spend here cut there. He lays out the fundamental principles behind capitalism; and markets in general. If you don't know Adam Smith you don't know economics.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
