A history by Robert N. Proctor of cancer research and policy in Nazi Germany, published by Princeton University Press in 1999 (this copy is the 2000 paperback printing). Chapters cover the purge of Jewish researchers, registries and screening, racial theories, occupational cancers, diet, the antitobacco campaign and wartime science. A section titled 'The Funeral Dress of Kings (Asbestos)' calls 1938 German reports the most convincing evidence to that date of an asbestos-lung cancer link, and says the Nazi government in 1943 first recognized asbestos-induced mesothelioma and lung cancer as compensable.
