'Polin is an exceptionally successful example of interdisciplinary studies. The Holocaust and its aftermath in Poland is treated from many different points of view and disciplines, which give a good picture both of the current state of research and of Polish-Jewish relations during and after the Holocaust. Quite simply, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.' Lars M. Andersson, Historisk Tidskrift
