Most of these books neglect the contribution of women in the medical profession. In this book, they are the focus of attention. The first section of the book explains the background of the Third Reich in general and medicine during this period in particular. It addresses the situation of female doctors and why there were relatively few of them. It goes on to detail the forms of transgression that occurred under Nazi rule?involuntary sterilization, euthanasia, and mass murder of Jews and other groups considered undesirable. The second part of the book is a collection of 38 alphabetically arranged biographies of individual female doctors who participated in these activities. It reports on the actions they took and what happened to them after the war. The final chapter draws some conclusions, which can be briefly summarized as follows: 1) the female doctors' role remains under-researched, 2) generally speaking, female doctors were also guilty, but their transgressions generally less gruesome than those of their male colleagues, 3) many of the deeds of female doctors are nevertheless shocking. 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945 606 $aMedicine$xHistory 606 $aWomen$xHistory 606 $aHistory of World War II and the Holocaust 606 $aHistory of Medicine 606 $aWomen's History / History of Gender 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945. 615 0$aMedicine$xHistory. 615 0$aWomen$xHistory. 615 14$aHistory of World War II and the Holocaust. 615 24$aHistory of Medicine. 615 24$aWomen's History / History of Gender. 676 $a940.53 700 $aErnst$b Edzard$0782220 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910921007403321 996 $aHitler's Female Physicians$94308613 997 $aUNINA
