  Book Description:
  In War Against the Weak, award-winning investigative journalist Edwin Black connects the crimes of the Nazis to a pseudo-scientific American movement of the early twentieth century called eugenics. Based on selective breeding of human beings, eugenics began in laboratories on Long Island but ended in the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. Ultimately, over 60,000 unfit Americans were coercively sterilized, a third of them after Nuremberg declared such practices crimes agains thumanity. This is a timely and shocking chronicle of bad science at its worst which holds important lessons for the impending genetic age.
