Title: NAKED GERMANY: HEALTH, RACE AND THE NATION
Description: "Twentieth-century efforts to create a fit and racially pure Germany, most clearly evident in the policies of Nazi Germany, tended to focus almost entirely on reforming the national body while paying little attention to the personal body. The Freikorperkultur, or nudist, movement, is an important and unique exception, in that it focused on the personal body as a means of reinvigorating and regenerating the larger national or racial body. Naked Germany provides the first comprehensive history of the Freikorperkultur, a movement that anticipated Nazi ideology in many ways."--BOOK JACKET.
