The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich is a large book going into detail on the horrible medical experiments done to concentration camp prisoners by Germany.

Answer 3

During the second World War, Nazi human experimentation occurred in Germany. At the war's conclusion, 23 Nazi doctors and scientists were tried for the murder of concentration camp inmates who were used as research subjects. Of the 23 professionals tried at Nuremberg, 15 were convicted. Seven of them were condemned to death by hanging and eight received prison sentences from 10 years to life. Eight professionals were acquitted. (Mitscherlich 1992)

The result of these proceedings was the Nuremberg Code. It includes the following guidelines, among others, for researchers:

Informed consent is essential.
Research should be based on prior animal work.
The risks should be justified by the anticipated benefits.
Research must be conducted by qualified scientists.
Physical and mental suffering must be avoided.
Research in which death or disabling injury is expected should not be conducted.
In Japan, Unit 731 experimented with prisoner vivisection, dismemberment and induced epidemics on a very large scale from the late 1920s onward.

Immunity was exchanged with America after the war for a tiny part of the results, so that in postwar Japan Ishii and others continued to hold honoured positions. The Soviets were blocked from most access to those responsible by the Americans, who coveted the Japanese results. The effects were lasting and China is still working to counteract the effects of buried pathogen caches.[citation needed]

In 1940 in the United States, four hundred prisoners in Chicago were infected with malaria to study the effects of new and experimental drugs for the disease. Beginning in 1942, mustard gas experiments were conducted on 4,000 United States servicemen in order to study the effects on the human nervous system. These tests concluded in 1945.

Fort Detrick in Maryland was the headquarters of US biological warfare experiments. Operation Pettycoat involved the injection of infectious agents to observe their effects in human subjects [1].

Old fashioned but books are your most reliable source. (Books are edited and verified, Internet is not) Look at "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" by William L. Shirer and "The Theory and Practice of Hell: the German concentration camps and the system behind them" by Eugen Kogon
