Science has given us vaccines, electricity, and space travel. But the road to progress wasn't always clean. Behind many of the discoveries we celebrate today are stories of unethical experiments, stolen credit, and human suffering that rarely make it into the textbooks.

This book looks at the darker chapters in the history of science -- the moments when the pursuit of knowledge came at a real human cost. From Nazi medical experiments and Cold War radiation tests to the exploitation of marginalized communities in the name of research, it covers the cases that shaped modern ethics rules for a reason. It's not anti-science -- it's a reminder that how we get answers matters just as much as the answers themselves.
