Stand Against Tyranny is the dramatic history of Norway's physicians during the Nazi Occupation. While many citizens participated in the Resistance, the role of Norway's physicians was central to its efforts. As graduates of Norway's only medical school at the University of Oslo, doctors belonged to a tightly-knit group with a close communication network. As they occupied a trusted position in Norwegian society, in the guise of the practice of medicine, they could contact virtually any of their fellow citizens within arising Nazi suspicion. They maintained their automobiles, enjoying a freedom of travel denied to others, and could bypass curfews with impunity. From rescuing children from orphanages to performing plastic surgery to disguise an underground agent, Norwegian doctors acted forcefully and effectively to combat the Nazi invasion. A Stand Against Tyranny is a valuable contribution to the growing body of World War II literature and will prove to be a benchmark publication on the war in Norway.
