This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With 16 pages of photographs One of the most shocking aspects of the Nazi treatment of their prisoners was the wanton cruelty of the doctors assigned to the concentration camps that were dotted throughout occupied Europe. In an ironic perversion of their Hippocratic oath doctors, such as the infamous Mangele, carried out horrendous experiments on their captive victims in the name of science. As part of the Nuremberg trials the Nazi medical establishment was called to account for these crimes against humanity. Alexander Mitscherlich was the doctor assigned to carry out a full investigation into the crimes across all of Europe; in his report embodied in this book, reported on the awful scale and complicity of the Nazis. The terrible details have to be read to be believed in this shocking book.
Download or read book Doctors from Hell written by Vivien Spitz and published by Sentient Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A chilling story of human depravity and ultimate justice, told for the first time by an eyewitness court reporter for the Nuremberg war crimes trial of Nazi doctors. This is the account of 22 men and 1 woman and the torturing and killing by experiment they authorized in the name of scientific research and patriotism. Doctors from Hell includes trial transcripts that have not been easily available to the general public and previously unpublished photographs used as evidence in the trial. The author describes the experience of being in bombed-out, dangerous, post-war Nuremberg, where she lived for two years while working on the trial. Once a Nazi sympathizer tossed bombs into the dining room of the hotel where she lived moments before she arrived for dinner. She takes us into the courtroom to hear the dramatic testimony and see the reactions of the defendants to the proceedings. This landmark trial resulted in the establishment of the Nuremberg code, which set the guidelines for medical research involving human beings. A significant addition to the literature on World War II and the Holocaust, medical ethics, human rights, and the barbaric depths to which human beings can descend.

Book Synopsis The Nazi Doctors and the Nuremberg Code : Human Rights in Human Experimentation by : George J. Annas Edward R. Utley Professor of Health Law
Download or read book The Nazi Doctors and the Nuremberg Code : Human Rights in Human Experimentation written by George J. Annas Edward R. Utley Professor of Health Law and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1992-05-07 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The atrocities committed by Nazi physicians and researchers during World War II prompted the development of the Nuremberg Code to define the ethics of modern medical experimentation utilizing human subjects. Since its enunciation, the Code has been viewed as one of the cornerstones of modern bioethical thought. The sources and ramifications of this important document are thoroughly discussed in this book by a distinguished roster of contemporary professionals from the fields of history, philosophy, medicine, and law. Contributors also include the chief prosecutor of the Nuremberg Military Tribunal and a moving account by a survivor of the Mengele Twin Experiments. The book sheds light on keenly debated issues of both science and jurisprudence, including the ethics of human experimentation; the doctrine of informed consent; and the Code's impact on today's international human rights agenda. The historical setting of the Code's creation, some modern parallels, and the current attitude of German physicians toward the crimes of the Nazi era, are discussed in early chapters. The book progresses to a powerful account of the Doctors' Trial at Nuremberg, its resulting verdict, and the Code's development. The Code's contemporary influence on both American and international law is examined in its historical context and discussed in terms of its universality: are the foundational ethics of the Code as valid today as when it was originally penned? The editors conclude with a chapter on foreseeable future developments and a proposal for an international covenant on human experimentation enforced by an international court. A major work in medical law and ethics, this volume provides stimulating, provocative reading for physicians, legal professionals, bioethicists, historians, biomedical researchers, and concerned laypersons.

Book Synopsis Medicine and Medical Ethics in Nazi Germany by : Francis R. Nicosia
Download or read book Medicine and Medical Ethics in Nazi Germany written by Francis R. Nicosia and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2002-05-30 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The participation of German physicians in medical experiments on innocent people and mass murder is one of the most disturbing aspects of the Nazi era and the Holocaust. Six distinguished historians working in this field are addressing the critical issues raised by these murderous experiments, such as the place of the Holocaust in the larger context of eugenic and racial research, the motivation and roles of the German medical establishment, and the impact and legacy of the eugenics movements and Nazi medical practice on physicians and medicine since World War II. Based on the authors' original scholarship, these essays offer an excellent and very accessible introduction to an important and controversial subject. They are also particularly relevant in light of current controversies over the nature and application of research in human genetics and biotechnology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A brilliant attempt to explain the profound historical crisis into which medicine had plummeted during the Nazi period with the tried methods of social history.--Historische Zeitschrift "The author has drawn from an extraordinary range of sources, and the weight of evidence he compiles will certainly give pause to anyone who still wants to believe that professionals kept their hands clean in this era of great and methodical crimes.--Journal of Modern History "Kater's important book deserves close attention from historians of medicine and German historians alike.--Isis In this history of medicine and the medical profession in the Third Reich, Michael Kater examines the career patterns, educational training, professional organization, and political socialization of German physicians under Hitler. His discussion ranges widely, from doctors who participated in Nazi atrocities, to those who actively resisted the regime's perversion of healing, to the vast majority whose ideology and behavior fell somewhere between the two extremes. He also takes a chilling look at the post-Hitler medical establishment's problematic relationship to the Nazi past. -->
Book Synopsis Mengele And Nazi Doctors During The Third Reich by : Joshua Itzkowitz
Download or read book Mengele And Nazi Doctors During The Third Reich written by Joshua Itzkowitz and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-16 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experiments conducted during World War II provide some of the most extreme examples of breaches of human rights and ethics the world has so far seen. There is no benefit in considering the Nazi experiments as "other" or irrelevant. The greatest good that can come out of these atrocities is the lessons they have to teach about what plays into and creates a hostile research environment. Before the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party, Germany was at the forefront of both medical research and medical ethics. The rise of the National Socialist movement led to an ethical decline in physicians' perception of their professional identity. This was reinforced by concepts like "lives not worth living", a term that was repeated often in Nazi propaganda and which played a central role in justifying many atrocities committed under the Nazi regime. The Nazi era in general, and the behavior of Nazi doctors in particular, serve to show that despite a general historical progression toward greater humanity, egregious regressions and moral backsliding have occurred.

Book Synopsis Nazi Medical Experiments by : T. D. Conner
Download or read book Nazi Medical Experiments written by T. D. Conner and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-25 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nazism cursed the European continent and tried to dominate the world. It was a racist dogma enforced by racist bullies and brutal criminals. Before Adolf Hitler was crushed, between 50 and 60 million people died. Nazis extended their cruelties into the realm of medicine, their grinning doctors, many of them once distinguished professors with advanced degrees, torturing thousands, including children, to death in grisly ways in filthy back rooms at the many Nazi camps or in special murder "clinics." This book discusses some of the hideous crimes against humanity they committed, all of it with a clear conscience and without a second thought. There is also a section on medical "experiments" and atrocities carried out, even in the days of the 21st Century, in a developed country near you.
Book Synopsis From Clinic to Concentration Camp by : Paul Weindling
Download or read book From Clinic to Concentration Camp written by Paul Weindling and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Representing a new wave of research and analysis on Nazi human experiments and coerced research, the chapters in this volume deliberately break from a top-down history limited to concentration camp experiments under the control of Himmler and the SS. Instead the collection positions extreme experiments (where research subjects were taken to the point of death) within a far wider spectrum of abusive coerced research. The book considers the experiments not in isolation but as integrated within wider aspects of medical provision as it became caught up in the Nazi war economy, revealing that researchers were opportunistic and retained considerable autonomy. The sacrifice of so many prisoners, patients and otherwise healthy people rounded up as detainees raises important issues about the identities of the research subjects: who were they, how did they feel, how many research subjects were there and how many survived? This underworld of the victims of the elite science of German medical institutes and clinics has until now remained a marginal historical concern. Jews were a target group, but so were gypsies/Sinti and Roma, the mentally ill, prisoners of war and partisans. By exploring when and in what numbers scientists selected one group rather than another, the book provides an important record of the research subjects having agency, reconstructing responses and experiential narratives, and recording how these experiments – iconic of extreme racial torture – represent one of the worst excesses of Nazism.
