Description

Cassidy's groundbreaking biography of Werner Heisenberg, Uncertainty, was published to resounding acclaim from scholars and critics. In Beyond Uncertainty, Cassidy interprets this and other previously unknown material within the context of his vast research and tackles the vexing questions of a scientist's personal responsibility and guilt when serving an abhorrent military regime.. Michael Frayn, in the playbill of the Broadway production of Copenhagen, referred to it as one of his main sources and "the standard work in English". In 1992, David C. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, long-suppressed information has emerged on Heisenberg's role in the Nazi atomic bomb project. Cassidy has sifted the record and brilliantly detailed Heisenberg's actions." No book that has appeared since has rivaled Uncertainty, now out of print, for its depth and rich

"An Uncertain Life" according to Boitchik. The term "uncertainty" entered the realm of physics and captivated philosophers as well. "Uncertainty" is interwoven with its developer Werner Heisenberg's life in which the term is so ironic and apropos. Other books about Heisenberg, an award winning play by Frayn etc.keep the topic intriguing. This book is an excellent biography that unfolds the myriad contradictions in Heisenberg's behavior as a dedicated German flitting though the Nazi era and who became a focal point for.

CassidyBellevue Literary Press, NY, 2009David Cassidy has written what surely must be the definitive work on Werner Heisenberg. He clearly likes the subject, as this is his second book on the same person! The previous one: "Uncertainty: The life and science of Werner Heisenberg" appeared in 1991. The present book draws on more material, has a wider scope, and at least on the subject of the German nuclear-we
