Hundert Jahre an Der Schnittstelle Von Chemie Und Physik

This volume, occasioned by the centenary of the Fritz Haber Institute, formerly the Institute for Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry, covers the institute's scientific and institutional history from its founding in 1911 as one the earliest institutes of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society, through the renaming for its founding director in 1952 and joining of the Max Planck Society, until the present. The institute's pace-setting research in physical chemistry and chemical physics has been shaped by seven Nobel Laureates.
