Book synopsis

In the first book on the subject, Kristie Macrakis examines scientific research under National Socialism through the prism of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society. Based on a trove of previously untapped archival sources in the former East and West Germany, printed material, and numerous interviews with scientists and administrators, this book provides a rich account of science under a totalitarian regime previously seen as a monolithic block, but here revealed as a montage ofrival power blocks which allowed the survival of scientific research at a unique institution.
