In paperback for the first time; From Racism to Genocide is an explosive; richly detailed account of how Nazi anthropologists justified racism; developed practical applications of racist theory; and eventually participated in every phase of the Holocaust. Using original sources and previously unpublished documentation; Gretchen E. Schafft shows the total range of anti-human activity from within the confines of a particular discipline. Based on seven years of archival research in the United States and abroad; the work includes many original photos and documents; most of which have never before been published. It uses primary data and original texts whenever possible; including correspondence written by perpetrators. The book also reveals that the United States was not merely a bystander in this research; but instead contributed professional and financial support to early racial research that continued through the first five years of Hitler’s regime.
