In the early years of this century, Germany was ablaze with scientific
achievement and personalities, many of them Jewish. A dazzling 鈥淕erman century鈥�
seemed to lie ahead, but what followed was catastrophe. Einstein鈥檚 German World
is a collection of elegantly written essays in which Fritz Stern links the lives
and relationships of Germany鈥檚 scientists, especially Einstein and Fritz Haber,
with other figures up to the present day. It makes illuminating if tragic
reading. Published by Princeton University Press, 拢15.95, ISBN
