The explosive, dark secrets behind America’s post–World War II science programs from the author of the New York Times bestseller Area 51
In the chaos following World War II, some of the greatest spoils of Germany’s resources were the Third Reich’s scientific minds. The US government secretly decided that the value of these former Nazis’ knowledge outweighed their crimes and began a covert operation code-named Paperclip to allow them to work in the United States without the public’s full knowledge.
Drawing on exclusive interviews with dozens of Paperclip family members, colleagues, and interrogators and with access to German archival documents (including papers made available to her by direct descendants of the Third Reich’s ranking members), files obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, and lost dossiers discovered at the National Archives and Harvard University, Annie Jacobsen follows more than a dozen German scientists through their postwar lives and into one of the most complex, nefarious, and jealously guarded government secrets of the twentieth century.

Just a note to thank you for this book :)

Basically just an unresearched rant, not worth listening to unless you like your propaganda.

“Important, superbly written…. Jacobsen’s book allows us to explore these questions with the ultimate tool: hard evidence. She confronts us with the full extent of Paperclip’s deal with the devil, and it’s difficult to look away.”―Matt Damsker, USA Today (4 stars)
“With Annie Jacobsen’s OPERATION PAPERCLIP for the first time the enormity of the effort has been laid bare. The result is a book that is at once chilling and riveting, and one that raises substantial and difficult questions about national honor and security…This book is a remarkable achievement of investigative reporting and historical writing.”―Boston Globe
“As comprehensive as it is critical, this latest expose from Jacobsen is perhaps her most important work to date…. Jacobsen persuasively shows that it in fact happened and aptly frames the dilemma…. Rife with hypocrisy, lies, and deceit, Jacobsen’s story explores a conveniently overlooked bit of history.” — Publishers Weekly (starred)
“The most in depth account yet of the lives of Paperclip recruits and their American counterparts…. Jacobsen deftly untangles the myriad German and American agencies and personnel involved…more gripping and skillfully rendered are the stories of American and British officials who scoured defeated Germany for Nazi scientists and their research.”―New York Times Book Review
“Chilling, compelling, and comprehensive accounting…. Jacobsen’s impressive book plumbs the dark depths of this postwar recruiting and shows the historical truths behind the space race and postwar US dominance. Highly recommended for readers in World War II history, espionage, government cover-ups, or the Cold War.” — Library Journal (starred)
“Darkly picaresque…. Jacobsen persuasively argues that the mindset of the former Nazi scientists who ended up working for the American government may have exacerbated Cold War paranoia.”―New Yorker
“An engrossing and deeply disturbing exposé that poses ultimate questions of means versus ends.” — Booklist (starred)
“Annie Jacobsen’s Operation Paperclip is a superb investigation, showing how the U.S. government recruited the Nazis’ best scientists to work for Uncle Sam on a stunning scale. Sobering and brilliantly researched.” — Alex Kershaw, author of The Liberator
“Throughout, the author delivers harrowing passages of immorality, duplicity and deception, as well as some decency and lots of high drama. How Dr. Strangelove came to America and thrived, told in graphic detail.” — Kirkus Reviews
“[A] gripping, always disquieting story of a nation forced to trade principle for power…. Jacobsen gives us many vivid moments…. OPERATION PAPERCLIP takes its place in the annals of Cold War literature, one more proof that moral purity and great power can seldom coexist.”―Chris Tucker, The Dallas Morning News
“Jacobsen uses newly released documents, court transcripts, and family-held archives to give the fullest accounting yet of this endeavor.” — The New York Post
