From the courtrooms of Nuremberg to the battlefields of the Gulf War, Undue Risk exposes a variety of government policies and specific cases, includingplutonium injections to unwilling hospital patients, and even the attempted recruitment of Nazi medical scientists bythe U.S. government after World War II.
Already years before the Nazis came to power, German scientists were propagating theories about blood purity. Though this obsession led to bizarre and dangerous theories about superiority and personality traits, it also led to medical breakthroughs.
The “EVENT” is the moment of the “Compression Breakthrough” on earth. COBRA guides us to prepare for change, for the Event and disclosure.
The latest news on science and tech breakthroughs that are shaping the future of humanity.
Nearly 70 years after the end of World War II, the scientific community is still fractured over the legacy of Nazi science—a conflict underscored by the clash over the Strughold prize.
Book Synopsis Beware the pronouncements from medical authorities on high...The good, the bad, and the ugly of the winners of the Nobel Prize in Medicine are explored in these entertaining biographies of the world's most highly recognized scientists. From unapologetic Nazis to dedicated humanitarians who carried out prize-winning research while being resistance fighters or peace activists, these engaging true stories reveal the depths of both the human strength and depravity of the people who forged medical progress in the twentieth century.In Heroes & Scoundrels (Volume 2 in the Boneheads and Brainiacs series), author and medical historian Moira Dolan, MD, continues her fascinating exploration of Nobel Prize in Medicine winners, focusing on the years 1951-1975. The book's many biographies include the delightful discoveries of a honeybee researcher who persisted through the carpet-bombing of Munich, in-depth reflections on the nature of consciousness from Nobel neuroscientists, and even wild, hard-to-believe self-experimentation in the name of medical progress.Heroes & Scoundrels also provides readers with an eye-opening "behind the scenes" look at what one Nobel winner described as "a few odd crooks" in the Nobel Prize business of the post-War era, including researchers engaged in medical research dishonesty and fraud, and self-important scientists who leveraged their notoriety to influence public health affairs. The role of Nobel Prize winners is revealed in public debates about everything from water fluoridation to "good genes" and "bad genes." One laureate wondered, "whether mad scientists should really be allowed to police themselves" in light of the lack of informed consent for vaccine research and modified viruses escaping from labs.As put by another laureate, the medical "priesthood" is due for some critique, and Heroes and Scoundrels will get you thinking. Review Quotes "In exposing the good, the bad, and the ugly among Nobel Prize-winning scientists, Heroes & Scoundrels comes as a timely, necessary warning against accepting the pronouncements of medical 'experts' without question."--Foreword Reviews"This wide-ranging look at the lives behind the discoveries is just right for pop-science fans."--Publisher's Weekly"I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Every chapter was enlightening, absorbing, and indeed thrilling."--Harvey J. Alter, MD, winner 2020 Nobel Prize in Medicine"I congratulate you on the originality with which you enliven the historical record by peering into the pool of laureate labors and noting the mixture of rightness and wrongness to be found there."--William C. Campbell, PhD, winner 2020 Nobel Prize in Medicine"Lay readers, students and scientists alike, will find Heroes and Scoundrels entertaining, informative, insightful, and a genuine pleasure to read. The book provides a glimpse into what drives scientists' creativity, and how the political and economic structures of their time, as well as the wars fought during those twenty-five years, impacted and influenced the personalities and scientific contributions of the laureates. Dr. Moria Dolan is truly a gifted writer and medical historian."--Marian L. Lewis, PhD (cell biologist and virologist)

Combined Intelligence Objectives Sub-Committee (CIOS) Reports, 1944 - 1945 BMW, the Bavarian car company now synonymous with high end motor cars, was involved in the Second World War with testing rocket motors near Dachau concentration camp outside Munich. This report into BMW's wartime activities is based on interviews with executives carried out on the spot at the war's end and is one of over 700 published accounts of specific German scientific, medical, and technological developments during World War II. Most reports are based on detailed interviews with several German scientists, doctors, technicians, or other officials, and they often incorporate copies of photographs, drawings, and German-language documents. The majority of the reports concern industrial processes and technological developments related to the German war effort. The development and production of aluminium, steel, fuels, ordnance, ammunition, tanks and other vehicles, chemical warfare, optical equipment, and pharmaceuticals all provide examples of these subjects. Luftwaffe-related topics include aviation medicine, aircraft maintenance, high-speed airplane design and development, and engine design and development. \"The German Commercial Air Transport Industry and Related Aeronautical Activities and Developments\" constitutes a massive study of the pre-war development of Lufthansa, German airports, and air traffic control, with specialized features on a typical wartime fighter control centre and specific types of large German aircraft. Most German Navy reports pertain to U-Boats, including studies of the Type XXI submarine, the rotary wing kite used by some U-Boats, submarine pens in France, andsound absorbent coatings for U-Boats.
