*	Seven of the photographs in this study were taken during a ten-day research visit to the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp in June of 1998. Permission was graciously granted for our research team to walk on the collapsed roof of the gas chambers attached to Crematoriums II and II. Permission was also granted for taking photographs within the gas chamber of Crematorium II. Several hundred pictures were taken with both digital and conventional cameras during the research trip. These will form part of a major study which will be published on the Internet in due course. The roof of the gas chamber in Crematorium III is totally demolished and lying in fragments on the floor of the chamber. The roof of the gas chamber in Crematorium II is severely damaged, and except for a small raised area at one end, cannot be seen from the inside. The eighth picture was obtained from the archives of the Auschwitz State Museum to whom we extend our most grateful thanks.
