520    This is the first attempt to explain how Jewish doctors 
       survived extreme adversity in Auschwitz where death could 
       occur at any moment. The ordinary Jewish slave labourer 
       survived an average of fifteen weeks. Ross Halpin 
       discovers that Jewish doctors survived an average of 
       twenty months, many under the same horrendous conditions 
       as ordinary prisoners. Despite their status as privileged 
       prisoners Jewish doctors starved, froze, were beaten to 
       death and executed. Many Holocaust survivors attest that 
       luck, God and miracles were their saviors. The author 
       suggests that surviving Auschwitz was far more complex. 
       Interweaving the stories of Jewish doctors before and 
       during the Holocaust Halpin develops a model that explains
       the anatomy of survival. According to his model the 
       genesis of survival of extreme adversity is the will to 
       live which must be accompanied by the necessities of life,
       specific personal traits and defence mechanisms. For 
       survival all four must co-exist.
