Mass Murderers in White Coats documents the mass murder of "mental patients" by psychiatry in Nazi Germany, which served as a precursor ideologically and logistically for the later extermination of six million Jews and other victims of Nazi persecution in concentration camps. Comprehensive research with extensive notes is used to illustrate the common roots of psychiatric practice in Germany and the United States, a history that includes eugenics and torturous, dehumanizing, and sometimes fatal "treatments." The book also includes an ex-"mental patient's" perspective on psychiatric oppression, interviews with psychiatrists (members of the American Psychiatric Association) that practiced or were trained in Germany during the Nazi regime, and a history of organized resistance to psychiatric oppression by its victims the psychiatric inmates liberation movement.
