Cleansing the Fatherland - Nazi Medicine and Racial Hygiene

'The chapters in this volume painfully drive home the point that certainly as far as Germany is concerned, the lessons of the Third Reich have not yet been learned....These significant attempts by younger recruits to the larger medical establishment to change things through eye-opening reflection and analysis, however uncomfortable, need support.'--Michael H. Kater, author of Doctors under Hitler, in the Foreword
