Lifton’s article was written in July of 1985. The intended audience is people who are against miss treating others or not prejudice. The article shares both side of Dr. Mengele viewed as a somewhat good person showed as still having some feelings and he was also is viewed as pure evil or monstrous person. While in Auschwitz Dr. Mengele was focused on one particular experiment involving twins, this was a continuation of work done earlier with Verschuer at the University of Frankfurt. He often recorded measurements and
compared between the twins, but he also sometimes killed twins to dissect their organs and test theories. Some of Mengele’s other experiments are also mentioned, such as he tested people with different color eyes trying to change the color of the iris.
