Andrew Pike examines how Hitler’s limited education, attraction to pseudo-science, and intense anti-Semitism instead helped politicize German science and distort research under National Socialism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book explores the conflict between genuine scientific inquiry and Nazi ideology, including the regime’s hostility toward Albert Einstein and relativity, the dismissal and flight of Jewish scientists, and the promotion of supposedly “Aryan” alternatives in physics, chemistry, biology, and other disciplines. Pike also examines the growing influence of Heinrich Himmler’s SS over scientific research and the pursuit of unconventional projects and so-called wonder weapons as Germany’s military position deteriorated. The result is a study of how ideology, racial policy, pseudo-science, and political interference damaged one of the world’s leading scientific communities and shaped the technological ambitions of the Third Reich.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"border: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); height: 2px; margin: 0;\"\u003e","brand":"Pen and Sword Military","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49336105631918,"sku":"9781399079754","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/2486\/9806\/files\/9781399079754.jpg?v=1789008740","url":"https:\/\/rzm.com\/de\/products\/hitler-the-scientist-how-pseudo-science-and-anti-semitism-shaped-hitlers-destiny","provider":"RZM Imports Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
