Book The Eighth Day   Two Jews against The Third Reich

Download or read book The Eighth Day Two Jews against The Third Reich written by Dr. rer. nat. habil. Tim Bodan and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can it be that an old box of papers from over 80 years ago, hidden for more than half a century in the attic of a godforsaken old house in east Germany contained all the necessary hints to find the "World Formula" or "Theory of Everything"? Can it be that these papers originally belonged to two Jews, father and son, who were killed by the Nazis during the Second World War? Two Jews, who had already been about to find the "Holy Grail of Science" long before others even thought about this problem. But then, briefly before they could finish their work, had been gasified - like so many others - in Auschwitz. A story by far too horrifying and fascinating to be true? And yet here it is: a book which brings the two things together, the story of the two Jews and the derivation of the "World Formula"...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note: This version does not contain the mathematical part with equations but only the story. About the content of the mathematical paper please see (abstract below).Yes my child has died. I mean, his body has died. Nevertheless, I cannot get rid of the feeling that still I have to keep my promise. Whatever and wherever my child is now, I feel that it measures me on this. No matter the dead body. I have given that promise and so I have a responsibility. After all, I cannot know whether my child still listens to my every word and perhaps longingly waits for me to fulfil that task. It might wait for me to finish the work we started together a bit more than seven days ago, trying to explain the world. For all that I know, information cannot die or disappear in this universe and so, I think, also the set of information which once had defined my child still exists. It is there, somewhere, it has dignity and deserves attention. Thus, I will finish the job now. Interestingly, it isn't much I have to do myself here. The task was solved by a boy called Samuel and his father about 70 years ago. Both were killed by the Nazis in one of the gas chambers in Auschwitz. They died together in that chamber on Christmas Eve in 1944 and they were the greatest scientists of all time.It was very difficult for me to collect all their astounding work, because often it wasn't more than some scribbled notes on the rim of an old newspaper. Something written with shaking hands in the middle of publications of other scientists of their time. More was scratched into the walls of the miserable places they were forced to live. The most important pieces of their work however, was photographed from the interior of that Reichsbahn wagon which transported them to the KZ and finally there was this unobtrusive sketch in that dismal room where they both died together, a gas chamber in Auschwitz.One word about the translation from the German original into English.The translation was done by a colleague and good friend of the author. Unfortunately, this colleague isn't a professional at translating from German into English. He isn't even good at writing. True, he has written quite a few publications and had successfully submitted them to scientific journals, but this probably doesn't count if it comes to literature, does it? Well, the author thinks, that it is the knowledge which does count more here rather than smooth formulations and nice high flying text passages. The author thinks his book, after all, is more a scientific work, rather than a story, even so it tells one. In short, the author was happy with the translation and as it is his opinion which counts and which we value the translation is as it is. Abstract of mathematical part (in: B019M9ZHIE):In the present work it will be shown how a substructure of our ordinary space-time and relatively simple geometrical concepts of n-dimensional or fractal spaces will lead to concepts which might help to understand the universe.Applying this approach it is shown in this work that a) the substructure demands the space to jitter, leading to the uncertainty principle and the known quantum mechanical effects,b) it gives us the effect of time,c) it explains the appearance of matter out of quantized Einstein field equations which have been quantized using the substructure hypothesis,d) it also explains the matter/antimatter asymmetry we observe in our universe.Meanwhile, so the author has to admit, another one has obviously understood the Auschwitz equation much better. Thus, the reader is also referred to the scientific work of Schwarzer (e.g. www.amazon.com/dp/B01N9UGFX2).

Book The Math of Body  Soul  and the Universe

Download or read book The Math of Body Soul and the Universe written by Norbert Schwarzer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-12-27 with total page 988 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great German mathematician David Hilbert’s creation, de facto, was—no, is—a theory of everything or world formula, even though he himself had little chance of fully realizing this. Even in physics, where we can now show that Hilbert’s fundamental equation covers both great theories, General Theory of Relativity and Quantum Theory, the time was not ripe for such a discovery, simply because the mathematical apparatus of Quantum Theory was not fully developed then. While Hilbert brought out his great work in 1915 and knew about the Einstein field equations at the time, the basic quantum equations such as the Schrödinger, Klein–Gordon, and Dirac equations would not follow before the second half of the 1920s. In order to find the mathematical and physical fundament for the description of the body, the soul, and the whole universe, which is to say a "theory of everything," we think that we require "quantum gravity." That such a theory—in principle—already exists and was derived by Hilbert and elaborated in the author’s previous work, The World Formula: A Late Recognition of David Hilbert’s Stroke of Genius. This book digs deeper and shows not only that quantum gravity is more than just a physical theory—describing physical aspects—but also that, in fact, it covers "it all."

Book Hollywood and the Nazis on the Eve of War

Download or read book Hollywood and the Nazis on the Eve of War written by Alexis Pogorelskin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2024-07-25 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book establishes the profound significance of MGM's 1940 film The Mortal Storm, the first major Hollywood production to depict the plight of Jews in Germany before the Holocaust. Based on Phyllis Bottome's best seller, also titled The Mortal Storm, the film was made amidst the bitter debate that occurred between 1938 and 1941 over whether the United States should involve itself in another European war or remain an isolationist country, as Charles Lindbergh among others urged. In 1941, the film triggered the first hostile Congressional investigation of Hollywood where the studios were accused of allegedly propagandizing for war. Lindbergh had secretly urged the Hollywood hearings, inspired by his own growing antisemitism, as his unpublished diary reveals. Hollywood studios, in turn, regarded the growing European crisis with ambivalence. They feared being accused in a film like The Mortal Storm of using the movies to represent the fate of Europe's imperiled Jews. Louis B. Mayer, the head of MGM, insisted the word “Jew” be removed from the film and “non-Aryan” be used instead, hoping to confuse American audiences about the film's real intent. Jimmy Stewart, who starred in the film, took it on the road to urge American aid to Britain, while Lindbergh prepared his own campaign to denounce American Jews for luring the country into war. The book reveals how closely Hollywood and politics were entwined on the eve of war. It also reveals how closely the plight of Europe's Jews and American antisemitism were entwined at the same time.

Download or read book The Great Betrayal written by Sheldon W. Liebman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the view of many contemporary scholars, both Jesus and Judaism have been misrepresented by the church for the past two thousand years. Their main point is that Judaism was not a superficial, rigid, and outdated religion, and Jesus did not reject it. In fact, along with his disciples, he remained a Law-abiding Jew his entire life. However, as Christianity developed from a Jewish sect in the first century AD to the official religion of the Roman Empire in the fourth century, the church was transformed, Jesus was redefined, and both Jews and their religion were repudiated and marginalized. In short, both Christians and Jews were deeply affected by what many scholars now call the de-Judaization of Jesus. This book is an attempt to correct the traditional theological and scholarly misinterpretations of Jesus and Judaism that emerged over the first four centuries of the life of the church.

Book The Nazis  the Vatican  and the Jews of Rome

Download or read book The Nazis the Vatican and the Jews of Rome written by Patrick J. Gallo and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-15 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On October 16, 1943, the Jews of Rome were targeted for arrest and deportation. The Nazis, the Vatican, and the Jews of Rome examines why—and more importantly how—it could have been avoided, featuring new evidence and insight into the Vatican’s involvement. At the time, Rome was within reach of the Allies, but the overwhelming force of the Wehrmacht, Gestapo, and SS in Rome precluded direct confrontation. Moral condemnations would not have worked, nor would direct confrontation by the Italians, Jewish leadership, or even the Vatican. Gallo underscores the necessity of determining what courses of actions most likely would have spared Italian Jews from the gas chambers. Examining the historical context and avoiding normative or counterfactual assertions, this book draws upon archival sources ranging from diaries to intelligence intercepts in English, Italian, and German. With antisemitism on the rise today and the last remaining witnesses passing away, it is essential to understand what happened in 1943. The Nazis, the Vatican, and the Jews of Rome grapples with this particular, awful episode within the larger, horrifying story of the Holocaust. Despite the inadequacy of memory, we must continue to attempt to make sense of the inexplicable.

Book War  What Is It Good For

Download or read book War What Is It Good For written by Ian Morris and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful and provocative exploration of how war has changed our society—for the better. "War! . . . . / What is it good for? / Absolutely nothing," says the famous song—but archaeology, history, and biology show that war in fact has been good for something. Surprising as it sounds, war has made humanity safer and richer. In War! What Is It Good For?, the renowned historian and archaeologist Ian Morris tells the gruesome, gripping story of fifteen thousand years of war, going beyond the battles and brutality to reveal what war has really done to and for the world. Stone Age people lived in small, feuding societies and stood a one-in-ten or even one-in-five chance of dying violently. In the twentieth century, by contrast—despite two world wars, Hiroshima, and the Holocaust—fewer than one person in a hundred died violently. The explanation: War, and war alone, has created bigger, more complex societies, ruled by governments that have stamped out internal violence. Strangely enough, killing has made the world safer, and the safety it has produced has allowed people to make the world richer too. War has been history's greatest paradox, but this searching study of fifteen thousand years of violence suggests that the next half century is going to be the most dangerous of all time. If we can survive it, the age-old dream of ending war may yet come to pass. But, Morris argues, only if we understand what war has been good for can we know where it will take us next.

Book World War II  The Resistance

Download or read book World War II The Resistance written by C. David North and published by New Word City. This book was released on 2015-04-29 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France fell to Hitler's forces in less than two months. It was not until 1942 that widely dispersed underground organizations would band together to form a united opposition to the occupying Germans. It was not until then that resistance would become the Resistance - a disciplined multi-national movement that would play a significant part in the outcome of World War II. In each occupied nation, resistance groups would grow, gathering and sending information to London, planning increasingly complex sabotage operations, and assisting thousands of people, particularly Jews, in fleeing Nazi-occupied territories. Their actions would eventually become a focused counteroffensive against the German army in 1944, when Allied troops gathered in Great Britain to prepare for the invasion of France. As their widespread activity weakened German outposts in France and other occupied countries, the Allies would gain the foothold they needed to win the war. This is their story.

Book Eight Days in May  The Final Collapse of the Third Reich

Download or read book Eight Days in May The Final Collapse of the Third Reich written by Volker Ullrich and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[G]ripping, immaculately researched . . . In Mr. Ullrich’s account, the murderous behavior of the Reich’s last-ditch loyalists was not a reaction born of rage or of stubbornness in the face of defeat—common enough in war—but of something that had long ago tipped over into the pathological." —Andrew Stuttaford, Wall Street Journal The best-selling author of Hitler: Ascent and Hitler: Downfall reconstructs the chaotic, otherworldly last days of Nazi Germany. In a bunker deep below Berlin’s Old Reich Chancellery, Adolf Hitler and his new bride, Eva Braun, took their own lives just after 3:00 p.m. on April 30, 1945—Hitler by gunshot to the temple, Braun by ingesting cyanide. But the Führer’s suicide did not instantly end either Nazism or the Second World War in Europe. Far from it: the eight days that followed were among the most traumatic in modern history, witnessing not only the final paroxysms of bloodshed and the frantic surrender of the Wehrmacht, but the total disintegration of the once-mighty Third Reich. In Eight Days in May, the award-winning historian and Hitler biographer Volker Ullrich draws on an astonishing variety of sources, including diaries and letters of ordinary Germans, to narrate a society’s descent into Hobbesian chaos. In the town of Demmin in the north, residents succumbed to madness and committed mass suicide. In Berlin, Soviet soldiers raped German civilians on a near-unprecedented scale. In Nazi-occupied Prague, Czech insurgents led an uprising in the hope that General George S. Patton would come to their aid but were brutally put down by German units in the city. Throughout the remains of Third Reich, huge numbers of people were on the move, creating a surrealistic tableau: death marches of concentration-camp inmates crossed paths with retreating Wehrmacht soldiers and groups of refugees; columns of POWs encountered those of liberated slave laborers and bombed-out people returning home. A taut, propulsive narrative, Eight Days in May takes us inside the phantomlike regime of Hitler’s chosen successor, Admiral Karl Dönitz, revealing how the desperate attempt to impose order utterly failed, as frontline soldiers deserted and Nazi Party fanatics called on German civilians to martyr themselves in a last stand against encroaching Allied forces. In truth, however, the post-Hitler government represented continuity more than change: its leaders categorically refused to take responsibility for their crimes against humanity, an attitude typical not just of the Nazi elite but also of large segments of the German populace. The consequences would be severe. Eight Days in May is not only an indispensable account of the Nazi endgame, but a historic work that brilliantly examines the costs of mass delusion.

Book The Night of Broken Glass

Download or read book The Night of Broken Glass written by Uta Gerhardt and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-09-11 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: November 9th 1938 is widely seen as a violent turning point in Nazi Germany’s assault on the Jews. An estimated 400 Jews lost their lives in the anti-Semitic pogrom and more than 30,000 were imprisoned or sent to concentration camps, where many were brutally mistreated. Thousands more fled their homelands in Germany and Austria, shocked by what they had seen, heard and experienced. What they took with them was not only the pain of saying farewell but also the memory of terrible scenes: attacks by mobs of drunken Nazis, public humiliations, burning synagogues, inhuman conditions in overcrowded prison cells and concentration camp barracks. The reactions of neighbours and passersby to these barbarities ranged from sympathy and aid to scorn, mockery, and abuse. In 1939 the Harvard sociologist Edward Hartshorne gathered eyewitness accounts of the Kristallnacht from hundreds of Jews who had fled, but Hartshorne joined the Secret Service shortly afterwards and the accounts he gathered were forgotten – until now. These eyewitness testimonies – published here for the first time with a Foreword by Saul Friedländer, the Pulitzer Prize historian and Holocaust survivor – paint a harrowing picture of everyday violence in one of Europe’s darkest moments. This unique and disturbing document will be of great interest to anyone interested in modern history, Nazi Germany and the historical experience of the Jews.
