Book Synopsis
How could the Holocaust have happened? And how can Germans make sure that it will never happen again? This title considers bioethical debates surrounding embryonic stem cell research in Germany at the turn of twenty-first century, highlighting how the country's ongoing struggle to come to terms with its past informs the decisions it makes today.

Trade Review
"Without a doubt, this is the finest ethnography of German political life and the inner workings of the German state that I have read - it is brilliantly attentive both to the cultural and historical legacies that shape German politics as well as to the realpolitik and complex alliances of its parliamentary statecraft." (Dominic Boyer, Rice University)"
