Title: Final Stamp
Description: This book tells the story of the team of doctors who in 1942, within the Warsaw Ghetto, came together to carry out an ambitious and inspired research project. For 4 months they studied "Hunger Disease" and the effects of starvation on the metabolism of their starving patients. Several things were extraordinary about the project. One of course was the lack of equipment and access to medical apparatuses. Another was the danger involved in carrying out such work under the noses of the Nazis. But most of all, their fervor and diligence in terrible times, suffering from their own starvation - creating research that continues to hold relevance in studies of nutrition and metabolism to this day. Highly recommended as evidence of our ability to rise above even the worst of circumstances.
