En 1935, Heinrich Himmler, uno de los jerarcas nazis más poderosos, creó el Ahnenerbe, un instituto de investigación dedicado a producir pruebas arqueológicas con fines políticos. Himmler reunió a una peculiar combinación de aventureros, místicos y profesores para reescribir la historia de la humanidad. Los investigadores realizaron expediciones públicas y misiones secretas en lugares como Irak, Finlandia y el Tíbet, con el apoyo del Tercer Reich. Heather Pringle presenta un retrato fascinante de la Ahnenerbe y su papel en el Holocausto, revelando cómo científicos y estudiosos permitieron que sus investigaciones se utilizaran para justificar el exterminio. 'El plan maestro' es un estudio sobre el delirio y el exceso, y sobre abusos científicos y políticos a escala global.

Heather Pringle is a Canadian freelance science writer who mostly writes about archaeology. Before becoming a writer, Pringle worked as a museum researcher and book editor. Her 2006 book The Master Plan detailed Heinrich Himmler's establishment of the Ahnenerbe in a pseudo-scientific attempt to manufacture evidence and "prove" Aryan superiority. It won the Hubert Evans Non-Fiction Prize. Her previous work includes The Mummy Congress, as well as articles for National Geographic and Archaeology magazine. Pringle is emeritus editor at Hakai Magazine and has been awarded a Canadian National Magazine Award and an AAAS Kavli Science Journalism Award from the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Kavli Foundation.
