Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 228 pages. By the end of World War I, Albert Einstein had bec ome the face of the new science of theoretical physics and had ma de some powerful enemies. One of those enemies, Nobel Prize winne r Philipp Lenard, spent a career trying to discredit him. Their s tory of conflict, pitting Germany's most widely celebrated Jew ag ainst the Nazi scientist who was to become Hitler's chief advisor on physics, had an impact far exceeding what the scientific comm unity felt at the time. Indeed, their mutual antagonism affected the direction of science long after 1933, when Einstein took flig ht to America and changed the history of two nations. The Man Who Stalked Einstein details the tense relationship between Einstein and Lenard, their ideas and actions, during the eventful period between World War I and World War II. Editorial Reviews Review In this title, the differences between theoretical and experimen tal physics are embodied respectively by Einstein and Philipp Len ard, a virulently anti-Semitic German physicist who won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1905. Hillman describes how, unable to prov e the existence of the long-popular notion of 'ether,' in debt, a nd jealous of the attention paid Einstein, Lenard abandoned his e arly admiration of the younger man and escalated his ad hominem a ttacks on his fellow Nobel winner for more than 20 years. The boo k relies in part on original works in German, thanks to Birgit Er tl-Wagner and Bernd C. Wagner's translations for Hillman, adding a new perspective to the study of Einstein. It includes fascinati ng biographical information on both men. . . .Hillman has succeed ed in his goal to 'write a history.that read(s) like a novel,' opening at the scene of a Nazi book burning. This very accessible popular science book will engage readers interested in physics, World War II, history, and biography. ? Library Journal In 1905 Albert Einstein, then a relatively unknown German theoretical phy sicist, published the paper that introduced his theory of relativ ity; that same year Philipp Lenard, an older and well-respected e xperimental physicist, won the Nobel Prize. Einstein, of course, went on to iconic status, but outside the scientific community, L enard is pretty much unknown these days. What happened? In simple terms, hatred, paranoia, and bigotry are what happened. This is a portrait of a man of indisputable talents who allowed himself t o become obsessed with bringing down another brilliant man, who, Lenard believed, was passing off wild speculation as science. But this was more than professional rivalry; Einstein was Jewish, an d Lenard was an anti-Semite who would become one of Hitler's advi sors. Was Lenard's campaign part of a larger effort to rid the sc ientific community of Jews? Evidence suggests so, though this acc ount also suggests that Lenard seemed honestly to believe in a co nspiracy to deprive him of credit for discoveries made by other s cientists. A deeply fascinating, deeply sad book that will be app eal to anyone with an interest in the history of modern science. ? Booklist About the Author Bruce J.
