About the Book
"Pseudo-science!" "Scientifically invalid!" "Insufficient and unscientific!" These were just a few of the opinions of American scientists after they had an opportunity to take a close look at the methods and results of Nazi medical research. Their outraged cries were understandable extensions of prevailing attitudes as the Allied military tribunals convened a series of trials to show the world once and for all the crimes of the Nazi state. Despite the harsh denunciations of all things Nazi, there is substantial evidence that American science selectively embraced the German research, including some that was openly obtained through instances of barbaric cruelty. Once safely in American hands, the seminal research was quietly covered up with the unspoken hope that no one would notice where it had come from.
The Clauberg Conspiracies is the story of such a cover-up. Based on archival material, interviews and a fresh perspective of historical data, the book is written in a novel format so that the reader can follow the complex story of three research programs that ultimately converge on the development of the birth control pill.
In The Clauberg Conspiracies, you will travel to the far reaches of the Polish countryside into one of the most notorious concentration camps and to the high desert mountains of Mexico. More importantly, you will get to peek into the mind of the Nazi researchers, to experience what it was like and see how they were motivated to conjure up some of the most horrific medical atrocities of all time.
