Book Synopsis
Cologne University Medicine was involved in injustice and crimes during the Nazi era. Employees were dismissed and persecuted for ideological reasons, and thousands of people were forcibly sterilized in the women''s clinic and surgical clinic. Forced abortions are also documented. The Anatomical Institute benefited from the executions of political prisoners in the Klingelpütz prison. Opposition was rare, and the students also adapted to the regime. This book describes the biographies of important actors, such as the directors of clinics and institutes as well as the municipal health department head Carl Corper, but also reminds of those who were persecuted. The structures at the medical faculty are not left in the dark: despite the enforced conformity and the regime of violence, there was definitely scope for humane action. The volume is richly illustrated and has an index of persons and several overview tables, e.g. B. equipped to the party memberships.
