Why read it?

1 author picked Forgotten Creators as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is a very long work: almost five thousand pages. It explains the difference between the German and American ways of doing science and why science has been in decline since Americans became leaders of scientific production. I find here a certain nostalgia for the times when Germany led scientific research in physics.

From Martín's list on mainstream science as monopoly of truth.
