    Die Entscheidung für den Bau der Atombombe fiel in den Vereinigten Staaten aus der Befürchtung heraus, daß deutsche Wissenschaftler und Ingenieure die (in deutschen Laboratorien gemachte) Entdeckung der Urankernspaltung waffentechnisch verwerten würden. Aber sobald die U.S.A. sich einmal entschieden hatte, den Bau einer Atombombe ernsthaft zu betreiben, entwickelte das Unternehmen eine Eigendynamik. In dem Bestreben, das Projekt zu finanzieren, o…

    TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE Book Reviews 189 focuses almost exclusively on the institution’s scientists and the research that brought them national prominence and on Caltech’s administrators and their efforts to bring to the institute both money and prestige. This approach works best for the early years, when the influence of Hale and a few wealthy trustees is clear. Here, in fact, Goodstein rounds out the picture provided in Robert Kargon’s 1982 stud…

    TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE Book Reviews 175 familiar with the history of early computing, these statements will come as no surprise. For those preoccupied with later computer technology and its applications, Aspray’s account may be a useful reminder. Finally, Aspray’s book bears powerful witness to the role of military considerations not only in the history of computing but in postwar American science. Von Neumann built a computer to solve “scientifi…

    It is a matter of record that Henri Poincaré never responded publicly to Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity (RT). Since almost no private papers of Poincaré are available, his attitude toward Einstein's work and his silence on that score become somewhat of a mystery. It is almost certain that Poincaré knew of Einstein's work in RT. First, he was fluent in German, having learned it as a young man when the Germans occupied his home town of Nan…
