Hi again, guys. I got some great suggestions from my last book suggestion thread the other day, so thank you. But I'm finding that I need some more stuff.
Specifically, this time I need information on what happened to Nazi doctors and scientists after World War 2. I know many Nazis fled to South America and some scientists were taken in by other countries, but any solid books about this would be a huge help. Specifically, I'm interested in those who performed experiments on human beings.
Thanks again!
I would recommend being very cautious and critical when reading about the subject on post-war Nazis. It is a subject that was and still is filled with speculation, wishful thinking and downright lies during the Cold War, fuelled by contemporary news articles and certain notorious liars (Otto Skorzeny in particular). Recent academic work on Operation Paperclip and those involved is usually very solid, but as soon as you venture outside of the US (in particular concerning Nazis who escaped to South America and the Middle East, save for some larger cases like Adolf Eichmann), it's going to get really speculative and usually ripe with errors quickly.
A great primary source can be found online: the CIA keeps several files on fugitive Nazis at their own FOIA site. To get you started, search for Walter Rauff's records, a man I have personally been researching for his presence in Chile.
