The Abuse of Man by Wolfgang Weyers PDF Summary

Book Description: Unfortunately, as Weyers notes, these issues came about because "for most of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries unethical experiments on humans were performed with hardly any resistance." He details a shameful list ranging from injections of potentially fatal drugs into orphans and the mentally ill during the 19th century to experiments on children performed well into the 1960s. Richly illustrated with photographs of the many doctors who were involved in dubious experiments, the book is a virtual "murderer's row" of horror. What remains most shocking are Weyers's many examples of unethical physicians who got away scot-free, such as those involved in the infamous Tuskegee syphilis study as well as the defendants at the lesser-known "second" Nuremberg Trial-the "Doctors' Trial" of 20 physicians who had participated in medical experiments during World War II.
