A history of the racial hygiene movement in Germany from its beginnings in the 19th century to the present. Many racial hygienists advocated eugenics but were not racist or antisemitic; in the 1920s, however, racist doctrines began to dominate. The Nazis adopted both the eugenic and the racist aspects of the "science"; scientists who were interested in the former found it opportune to go along with the latter. Pp. 417-438 describe the activities of members of the Kaiser-Wilhelm Institut fu r Anthropologie, and particularly its director, Otmar von Verschuer, who encouraged his former assistant Mengele to carry out experiments in Auschwitz and to send him "material" for the Institute. Pp. 494-513 analyze the "scientific" rationale of the Nuremberg Laws. Pp. 602-618 survey the controversy surrounding the 1951 UNESCO "Statement on the Nature of Race and Race Differences", which German anthropologists and geneticists almost unanimously opposed.
