Abstract | This book is about the ethics of nursing and midwifery, and how these were abrogated during the Nazi era. Nurses and midwives actively killed their patients, many of whom were disabled children and infants and patients with mental (and other) illnesses or intellectual disabilities. The book contains both fact-based descriptive essays and theoretical perspectives as a lens through which these crimes can be viewed. |
