Descrizione
This book discusses how the ethics of nursing and midwifery were abrogated during the Nazi era when 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. It examines factual and theoretical perspectives providing a lens through which these crimes can be viewed.
