Abstract
The article discusses the newest book by Michał Wójcik on the uprisings of Jewish inmates in death camps. On the one hand, it brings new information about various forms of resistance and heroic insurgents, whose attitudes are against the cruelty of the tormentors and the anti-Semitic prejudices of the Polish neighbors. On the other hand, with a strong empathy toward the Jewish inmates, it seems too critical to Polish fellow-prisoners, applying contemporary valuations to them.
