Description

The book describes the formative years of nuclear physics and how they influenced both the public view of physics and the political landscape of our century. Especially it analyses the role of German emigrants thereby assessing the myth-ladden history of German nuclear research before and during World War II. The quantitative scientometric methods systematically used by the author should be of interest for historians. The book addresses historians, especially historians of science, and the general public.
