Einstein's German World by Fritz Stern

The historian Fritz Stern explores the ambiguous promise of Germany before Hitler, as well as its decline into moral nihilism under Nazi rule and aspects of its remarkable recovery since World War II. He does this by combining history and biography in a sequence of finely drawn studies of Germany's great scientists before and during Hitler's reign.
