Description: From April through December of 1945, ten of Nazi Germany's greatest nuclear physicists were detained by Allied military and intelligence services at Farm Hall, an English country manor near Cambridge, England. The physicists knew the Reich had failed to develop an atomic bomb, and they soon learned that the Allies had succeeded. But what they did not know was that many of their meetings as well as private conversations were being monitored and recorded by British agents. This book contains the complete collection of transcripts that were made from the secret 1945 recordings. The Farm Hall transcripts, along with Bernstein's commentaries and a wide-ranging and thought-provoking introduction by historian David Cassidy, are an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to understand the history of physics and World War II.
