Mengele describes the international search for the Nazi doctor in 1985 that ended in a cemetery in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and the dogged forensic investigation that produced overwhelming evidence that Mengele had died - but failed to convince those who, arguably, most wanted him dead. This is the riveting story of science without limits, escape without freedom, and resolution without justice.

Based on exclusive and unrestricted access to more than 5,000 pages of personal writings and family photos, this definitive biography of German physician and SS-Hauptsturmfuhrer Josef Mengele (1911-1979) probes the personality and motivations of Auschwitz's "Angel of Death". From May 1943 through January 1945, Mengele selected who would be gassed immediately, who would be worked to death, and who would serve as involuntary guinea pigs for his spurious and ghastly human experiments (twins were Mengele's particular obsession).

For three decades, until the day he collapsed in the Brazilian surf in 1979, Josef Mengele, the Angel of Death who performed horrific experiments on the prisoners of Auschwitz, floated through South America in linen suits, keeping two steps ahead of Mossad agents, international police, and the world's journalists.

HISTORIA JOSEFA MENGELEGO, OSŁAWIONEGO ANIOŁA ŚMIERCI Z AUSCHWITZ. Wydarzenia w tej książce są oparte na faktach. Prawda bywa bardziej przerażająca od najwymyślniejszej fikcji.

Umyślne zarażanie wirusami, zszywanie tułowi kilku osób, operacje bez znieczulenia i wyrywanie płodów. To nie upiorne science-fiction, a prawdziwa historia. Do tego jedynie jej niewielka część. Ta książka opisuje znacznie więcej. Będziecie przerażeni tym, do czego zdolny jest człowiek.

Josef Mengele, o médico nazista que ficou conhecido como “Anjo da Morte” no campo de concentração de Auschwitz, escolhia o destino de suas vítimas: as câmaras de gás, os trabalhos forçados ou seu laboratório, alimentado diariamente com anões, gigantes, deformados e gêmeos para pesquisas e experimentos macabros.

Josef Mengele, oggi meglio conosciuto come "l’angelo della morte", fu un uomo privo di ogni coscienza e qualsiasi scrupolo. Legittimato dal momento storico che vedeva la Germania nazista alla ricerca della purezza della razza, agì sterminando migliaia di ebrei, utilizzandoli come cavie umane, in esperimenti indicibili, volti a ricercare il geme per la creazione di quella che, nel delirio nazista, doveva essere la pura razza ariana.

La figura di Josef Mengele è una delle più inquietanti tra quelle dei protagonisti della follia nazista. Il suo nome infatti è tristemente celebre per il suo ruolo all'interno del campo di sterminio di Auschwitz, in cui Mengele lavorò per 21 mesi come medico. Per tutto quel periodo Mengele, soprannominato ben presto "l'Angelo della Morte", trasformò l'ospedale di Auschwitz in una clinica degli orrori seviziando le vittime del campo con esperimenti disumani e terrificanti, torturando bambini, nani, rom e, soprattutto, i gemelli, la vera ossessione del folle dottore nazista.

In 1940, the German sons and daughters of infamous Nazi dignitaries Himmler, Göring, Hess, Frank, Bormann, Speer, and Mengele were children of privilege at four, five, or 10 years old, surrounded by affectionate, all-powerful parents. Although innocent and unaware of what was happening at the time, they eventually discovered the extent of their fathers' occupations: These men were leaders of the Third Reich and would later be convicted as monstrous war criminals.
