Notes Selected Further Reading IndexReviewsthis book not only offers a detailed study of the 12-year Gestapo reign of terror, but offers disturbing evidence about how the Gestapo assimilated back into German society * LSE Review of Books * Darms and Stolle offer their readers a succinct introduction to the subject while also managing to deconstruct a great number of myths still surrounding the Gestapo in public memory. * Irish Times * A welcome introduction * Military History Monthly * The Gestapo: Power and Terror in the Third Reich draws on all the latest scholarship to offer readers a compelling overview of what the organization was, what it did, and how it changed over time. Like many other penetrating explorations of the Nazi killing machine, it raises some very disturbing and ultimately unanswerable questions about the nature evil and cruelty in the world. A fine book all around, but not a book for the faint of heart. * The Daily Beast * Deeply researched and informative. * David Cesarani, Literary Review * An excellent short introduction to one of the most complex issues in the history of the Third Reich. * Richard Overy, author of The Third Reich: A Chronicle * Author InformationCarsten Dams is Professor of Police Sciences at the School of Public Management of North-Rhine Westphalia.
