This book was created following a public event in 2019 that investigated the \"lessons of Auschwitz\" for the practice of medicine in society today and in the future.\u003cbr\u003eAs well as commemorating the individual victims, the Auschwitz event focused on the role of German physicians in the Nazi regime. In this book, Dr. Selg's discussions go far beyond the historical events of the 1930s and '40s. Countering the legacy of Auschwitz-Birkenau and the inhumane medical practices of that time, he presents us with ways to advance forms of medicine today that encourage the most compassionate treatment of one another as human beings.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Today, as always in times of crisis, there are symptoms of a return, if not to Nazism, then to a right-wing regime that is strong, with a firm, streamlined order.\" -- \u003cb\u003ePrimo Levi\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in German as \u003ci\u003eNach Auschwitz.
