Pimlico 490pp £20 order from our bookshop
Nuremberg: Evil on Trial
By James Owen
Review 376pp £20 order from our bookshop
These two books mark the sixtieth anniversary of the Nuremberg tribunal, but with the trial of Saddam Hussein dragging on in Iraq they could hardly be more topical. The issue of the responsibility of leaders for the crimes of their regimes has, far from being buried with the crack of the last Nazi neck in the Nuremberg noose, arisen again in Rwanda, Bosnia, and now in Iraq.

'Warhol appears to have been not so much alive as undead. He affected dopey inarticulacy in interviews, envied the automatism of machines and cultivated an affectless ennui as he limoed between parties.'
March's cover piece: Peter Conrad on Andy Warhol.
