So... note pre-WWII, but how about the medical knowledge we got sure to the nazi torture experiments on Jews?
Ago did the end justify the means?Janx ninja'd you.
I'll just add that the Nazis weren't alone in their dodgy medical ethics. There were a lot of experiments conducted on the unwitting by Russian, American and other 1st world nations of the era.
Hard to say. I know that the data from those experiments gets debated rather hotly on both sides, but I don't know how much of it has ever been used in actuality.Ago did the end justify the means?
So would you say it is a yes or a no?You get some über-pragmatic decision making trees in the military. Most navies- especially submariners in said navies- train a lot about slamming bulkhead doors closed in the event of a major leak, even of it means sealing up someone to die. Because if you don't, the entire ship may go down.
From what I've heard, some of the plastic surgery procedure were found by the Nazis.Hard to say. I know that the data from those experiments gets debated rather hotly on both sides, but I don't know how much of it has ever been used in actuality.
One common attack is that the data had no actual scientific controls, so its useless. But that may vary on a case by case basis. Certainly, a lot of the Nazi stuff was pure torture, but was all of it? I have not the first clue.
So... note pre-WWII, but how about the medical knowledge we got due to the nazi torture experiments on Jews?
