This book contains annotated transcripts of the Farm Hall conversations, and brings insights into the progress of the German bomb project during World War II, the thoughts of German scientists during that time, and their attempts to grapple with what they had done (and not done) as participants in the Reich's war effort.
"The transcripts provide a unique insight into the characters, relationships and thoughts of a remarkable group of individuals." Nature In 1992 the transcripts of the secretly recorded conversation among ten key German nuclear scientists, including Hahn and Heisenberg, were made public. These important documents not only reveal what the German scientists knew and didn't know about building the atomic bomb in 1945, they also tell us what it was like to be a scientist in Germany during the Second World War. In this insightful book, the author annotates the transcripts in detail and presents a well-documented case to back his conclusion that German scientists knew very little about nuclear weapon technology before the Allies' bombing of Hiroshima.
