While the coerced human experiments are notorious among all the
atrocities under National Socialism, they have been marginalised by
mainstream historians. This book seeks to remedy the
marginalisation, and to place the experiments in the context of the
broad history of National Socialism and the Holocaust. Paul
Weindling bases this study on the reconstruction of a victim group
through individual victims' life histories, and by weaving the
victims' experiences collectively together in terms of different
groupings, especially gender, ethnicity and religion, age, and
nationality. The timing of the experiments, where they occurred,
how many victims there were, and who they were, is analysed, as are
hitherto under-researched aspects such as Nazi anatomy and
executions. The experiments are also linked, more broadly, to major
elements in the dynamic and fluid Nazi power structure and the
implementation of racial policies. The approach is informed by
social history from below, exploring both the rationales and
motives of perpetrators, but assessing these critically in the
light of victim narratives.
