Einstein - Peace Now!

Visions and Ideas

by David Bradley

As part of its new "History of Knowledge" series, Wiley-VCH is publishing what it describes as "internationally acclaimed experts" on a variety of subjects to bring new perspectives to our history of knowledge. The latest in the series confirms Einstein not only as an extraordinary scientist, but also a dedicated pacifist.

Einstein - Peace Now! brings together articles by more than ten Nobel laureates and "alternative" laureates from Mikhail Gorbatschow, Walter Kohn, Joseph Rotblat, Alexander Ginzburg, Hans Bethe, and Jack Steinberger.

Other prominent scientists and those committed to justice, peace, and the engagement of citizens in science and its role in peace and responsibility are also represented.
