German-Jewish Pioneers in Science, 1900-1933: Highlights in Atomic Physics, Chemistry, and BiochemistrySpringer-Verlag, 1979 - 388 pagine Traces the development of the sciences in Germany through biographies of the leading scientists. Jews were prominent in the sciences because antisemitism was not an obstacle to advancement in these fields. Describes their fate after their dismissal from the universities and research institutes in 1933 and the efforts of some non-Jews (including Max Planck, Max von Laue, and Otto Hahn) to stand up for their Jewish colleagues. |
