HISTORIA JOSEFA MENGELEGO, OSŁAWIONEGO ANIOŁA ŚMIERCI Z AUSCHWITZ. Wydarzenia w tej książce są oparte na faktach. Prawda bywa bardziej przerażająca od najwymyślniejszej fikcji. Josef Mengele był nie tylko zbrodniarzem, ale również opętanym szaleństwem pseudonaukowcem, który więźniów obozów koncentracyjnych wykorzystywał jako żywy materiał do swych chorych badań. Umyślne zarażanie wirusami, zszywanie tułowi kilku osób, operacje bez znieczulenia i wyrywanie płodów. To nie upiorne science-fiction, a prawdziwa historia. Do tego jedynie jej niewielka część. Ta książka opisuje znacznie więcej. Będziecie przerażeni tym, do czego zdolny jest człowiek.
