Sociologia Chinesa: Autoplastia

A scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the gruesome practices surrounding child abduction in China, focusing specifically on cruel methods that lead to the transformation of humans into grotesque, animalistic forms. It serves as an exploration of social issues related to these atrocities within Chinese society. In ''Sociologia Chinesa: Autoplastia,'' Macgowan reveals horrifying accounts of individuals who have been victimized by a network of child abductors that use extreme and inhumane methods to alter their captives. The text describes practices such as subjecting victims to physical mutilation and drug-induced states to render them mute and mindless, effectively reducing them to grotesque displays for public entertainment. The horrifying transformation processes are emphasized through detailed case studies, showcasing the brutality inherent in these acts and shedding light on why such crimes are considered among the gravest offenses in China. The work aims to raise awareness about these societal issues and the moral implications surrounding them.
