In the first comprehensive history of the links between autism and Nazism, prize-winning historian Edith Sheffer uncovers how a diagnosis common today emerged from the atrocities of the Third Reich. As the Nazi regime slaughtered millions across Europe during World War Two, it sorted people according to race, religion, behavior, and physical condition. Nazi psychiatrists targeted children with different kinds of minds--especially those thought to lack social skills--claiming the Reich had no place for them. Hans Asperger and his colleagues endeavored to mold certain "autistic" children into productive citizens, while transferring others to Spiegelgrund, one of the Reich's deadliest child killing centers. In this unflinching history, Sheffer exposes Asperger's complicity in the murderous policies of the Third Reich.

The Ultimate Solution for Power Chewers!
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Medium
I have a Pitbull mix who can usually destroy "tough" toys in minutes, but the Bam-Bones Plus is a total game-changer. The bamboo and nylon blend is incredibly dense; it satisfies that natural urge to chew without splintering like real wood or falling apart like rubber. It wears down slowly and safely, giving my dog weeks of use rather than minutes. ​Smart, Functional Design ​The T-bone shape is brilliant because of the "paw-grip" base—it makes it so easy for my dog to hold it steady while she works on it. I’ve also noticed her teeth looking much cleaner since we started using this, as the raised textures act like a natural toothbrush. Plus, the infused beef scent keeps her interested much longer than a plain nylon bone ever could. ​Final Verdict ​This is a must-have for any owner of a large or aggressive chewer. It’s safe, long-lasting, and provides excellent mental stimulation.

Fantastic Durable Chew Toy That My Dog Loves!
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Medium
Absolutely thrilled with this dog chew toy! It’s extremely tough and durable — perfect for aggressive chewers and keeps my pup entertained for a long time. The bamboo fiber and nylon design feels sturdy yet gentle on the teeth, and it even helps with dental hygiene by massaging gums while he chews. My dog goes crazy for this bone and it lasts way longer than other chew toys we’ve tried. Great quality and great value — highly recommend for any dog

Great stimulation for active chewers!
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Large, Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Large
"Long lasting chews" never make it past 5 minutes in mouth of my Golden Retriever, but this one will! He immediately started chewing on it and barely made a dent. Love that this product is safe, clean, and enjoyable for my boy. Highly recommend!

100% Puppy-Approved
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Small
My little fur baby absolutely LOVES this!! ❤️ He immediately got the zoomies when I gave it to him. 🤣 It's his new favorite chew toy and keeps him occupied for long spans of time while inside or outside of his crate. Very durable, smells pleasant, and is the perfect size for my small puppy (he is currently 10 lbs and I got him the small one). Previous chew toys that I purchased were too large/heavy for him to pick up, but this one is lightweight and perfect! I highly recommend! 🙌🏾

Not destuctable
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Medium
This is the first toy that none of my dogs have destroyed. It's still going strong and they love carrying it around and gnawing on it every day. The material is durable and the product is the perfect size. I will buy more soon.
