The book delves into the backgrounds and ideologies of key Nazi leaders, revealing how early 20th-century Darwinism, eugenics, and race theory influenced their beliefs. It argues that these ideologies laid the groundwork for the horrific goals of creating a "master race" and the systematic extermination of various groups during the Holocaust. By exploring the acceptance of social Darwinism and anti-Semitism within scientific and medical circles, the work uncovers the chilling connections between these theories and the atrocities committed by the Nazis.
