A concise, scholarly and accessible history of the nightmarish plight suffered by more than one million people with disabilities during the Nazi era. Focusing on the Nazi goal of creating a "racial utopia," Forgotten Crimes explores the development of the Nazi regime's genocidal euthanasia programs. With research and writing supported by a grant from the U.S. Department of State, this book also highlights the implications of Nazi medical practices for contemporary controversies regarding eugenics, euthanasia, genetic engineering, medical experimentation and rationed health care.
