In an effort to create the Master Race, Nazi physicians and bioscientists, using American legislative models, money, and moral support, sterilized 400,000 and euthanized 200,000 German citizens while developing the gas chambers and crematoria used to murder 6,000,000 Jews. Rubenfeld and the contributors to this collection posit that German physicians betrayed the Hippocratic Oath when they chose knowledge over wisdom, the state over the individual, a führer over God, and personal gain over professional ethics. This groundbreaking work questions whether, since the best physicians of the early twentieth century could abandon their patients, the best physicians of the twenty-first century can be certain that they will not do the same.
Sheldon Rubenfeld, M.D.
Dr. Sheldon Rubenfeld is a clinical professor of general medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. He has authored two editions of Could It Be My Thyroid? and multiple scientific papers. Dr. Rubenfeld has been in private practice for 31 years, specializing in diseases of the thyroid gland and was selected by his peers as the Top Endocrinologist in Houston in the Guide to Top Doctors
Dr. Rubenfeld has taught Jewish Medical Ethics at Baylor College of Medicine for seven years as well as Healing by Killing: Medicine in the Third Reich for three years. He lectures to professional and religious organizations on both medicine and the Holocaust and on Jewish medical ethics.
Inspired by his aunt Thea Silber Steuer and by Colonel Josiah C. Wedgwood, who together rescued his mother from Austria in 1939, Dr. Rubenfeld created the concept for and developed, in conjunction with the Holocaust Museum Houston, Medical Ethics and the Holocaust, which included an exhibit entitled How Healing Becomes Killing: Eugenics, Euthanasia, Extermination and the 17-part Michael DeBakey Medical Ethics Lecture Series. This lecture series featured more than 30 distinguished scientists, physicians, ethicists, historians, and lawyers. Dr. Rubenfeld has now compiled many of the manuscripts by those lecturers into Medicine after the Holocaust: From the Master Race to the Human Genome and Beyond.
