DANIEL JONAH GOLDHAGEN is the author of the controversial book "Hitler's Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust" (Vintage Books, paperback). In the book he offers evidence that ordinary Germans knowingly cooperated in the Holocaust, that they were motivated by anti-Semitism not by economic hardship, coercion, or psychological pressures, as usually put forth by historians. GOLDHAGEN is Associate Professor of Government and Social Studies at Harvard University. SAUL FRIEDLANDER is the author of "Nazi Germany and the Jews, Vo. 1: The Years of Persecution 1933-1939" (HarperCollins). In the book he examines the period looking at how Hitler's "murderous rage" and ideologies, converged with internal political pressures, and attitudes of German and European societies to create the Holocaust. FRIEDLANDER is also the author of the memoir "When Memory Comes" (Farrar Straus Giroux). He was born in Prague and was seven when his parents "hid" him in a Catholic seminary in France where he took on a new identity. His parents died in the Holocaust. It wasn't until years later as FRIEDLANDER was studying for the priesthood, that he rediscovered his Jewish heritage. FREIDLANDER teaches at Tel Aviv University and at UCLA.
