Re: I need more information on hitlers expermiments

Hi Russell,

Thanks for submitting your questions to the MadSci network. I don't think that there
is much that we can do to help you. As scientists, we have a responsibility to only 
carry out ethical research. This responsibility naturally extends to any human and 
animal subjects of our research, but it also extends to the communities that we serve
and represent. Research that is carried out in unethical ways is considered to be 
unscientific, and tainted, and we cannot in good conscience make use of that research
or promulgate it. Any human biology experiments carried out by the Nazis fall into this
tainted, unethical category. In addition, Nazi "science" was driven by racist ideology, 
and not by the scientific method, and as such has little scientific merit to start with. 

Personally, I feel that it is disrespectful to the people who suffered at the hands of the 
Nazis (and their families) to treat these Nazi "experiments" as anything more than 
sadism and torture. 

If you want to learn more about the human body, a good place to start would be with
the textbooks used in Medical school. 

Cheers,

Steve Mack, Moderator MadSci Network
