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 gives the facts as well as theoretical perspectives as a lens
through which these crimes can be viewed. It also provides a way to
teach this history to nursing and midwifery students, and, for the first
time, explains the role of one of the world’s most historically
prominent midwifery leaders in the Nazi crimes.
