New York, New York, U.S.A.: Viking Pr, Date: 2003. New book, 535 pages. In 1933 Hitler dismissed all Jewish scientists from positions in laboratories and universities, and the Nazi ideology began to dominate Germany's science communities. Some scientists collaborated enthusiastically with the Nazi's; most merely acquiesced, arguing that science lies outside politics and morality. By the end of WW2, few german scientists remained untainted by a regime bent on genocide and racial conquest. John Cornwell's account sets the story of scientists under Hitler against the background panorama of Germany's relentless scientific rise in the 19th century through its collapse in 1945. His powerful account weaves the history of science and technology with the fortunes of war and the stories of men and women whose discoveries brought both benefits and destruction to the world. . Hard Cover. As New/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 2003. Viking Pr ISBN 0670030759 9780670030750 [AU]

ISBN10: 0670030759, ISBN13: 9780670030750, [publisher: Viking Books] Hardcover First Edition Owner embossed seal on flypage otherwise an unmarked copy.An eye-opening account of the rise of science in Germany through to Hitlers regime, and the frightening Nazi experiments that occurred during the Reich. A shocking account of Nazi science, and a compelling look at the the dramatic rise of German science in the nineteenth century, its preeminence in the early twentieth, and the frightening developments that led to its collapse in 1945, this is the compelling story of German scientists under Hitlers regime. Weaving the history of science and technology with the fortunes of war and the stories of men and women whose discoveries brought both benefits and destruction to the world, Hitler's Scientists raises questions that are still urgent today. As science becomes embroiled in new generations of weapons of mass destruction and the war against terrorism, as advances in biotechnology outstrip traditional ethics, this powerful account of Nazi science forms a crucial commentary on the ethical role of science.

New York: Viking; Penguin, Date: 2003. xvi, 535 pages, illustrations; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. A fine copy of the first printing. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by arrangement. "When Hitler came to power in the 1930s, Germany had led the world in science, mathematics, and technology for nearly four decades. But while the fact that Hitler swiftly pressed Germany's scientific prowess into the service of a brutal, racist, xenophobic ideology is well known, few realize that German scientists had knowingly broken international agreements and basic codes of morality to fashion deadly weapons even before World War I. In Hitler's Scientists, British historian John Cornwell explores German scientific genius in the first half of the twentieth century and shows how Germany's early lead in the new physics led to the discovery of atomic fission, which in turn led the way to the atom bomb, and how the ideas of Darwinism were hijacked to create the lethal doctrine of racial cleansing. By the war's end, almost every aspect of Germany's scientific culture had been tainted by the exploitation of slave labor, human experimentation, and mass killings. Ultimately, it was Hitler's profound scientific ignorance that caused the Fatherland to lose the race for atomic weapons, which Hitler would surely have used. Cornwell argues that German scientists should be held accountable for the uses to which their knowledge ...
