Changing Our Minds The Story of Dr Evelyn Hooker

During the German occupation of the Netherlands, 1940 to 1945, all Jews were ordered to register the religion of their grandparents. The Reichskommissar appointed the young lawyer Hans Calmeyer to adjudicate "doubtful cases." Calmeyer used his assignment to save at least 3,700 Jews from deportation and death, dwarfing the number saved by Schindler's famous rescue operation.

The author of the story of a science must be guided by the constraints and demands imposed on him by the definition of "science" itself. A science is more than a body of knowledge expounded in original papers and collected in books; it is the active pursuit of this knowledge by a dedicated group of people ( scientists) who are devoted to this '' great adventure'' by an inner drive that they cannot deny.

The authors discuss the history of physical science, from the ancient Greeks until modern times.
