Nature Magazine Reviews Hitler (1933)

JF Ptak Science Books  Quick Post

Here’s a razor-sharp summation and review of Adolf Hitler, being an uncommon appearance of that man and his “science” in Nature, volume 132, p. 198, 1933. 

“That the Nazi leader stands self-revealed as an ill-balanced, fanatical and otherwise abnormal is immaterial. What is supremely significant is that he has come into power on a wave of popular discontent  with present day social, political and economic conditions which is sufficiently intense to submit to previously unheard of restrictions for which a “scientific” backing is advanced.”
