Faust in Copenhagen The Struggle for the Soul of Physics and the Birth of the Nuclear Age

In April 1932, about 40 young scientists attended Niels Bohr's Copenhagen Institute for their freewheeling physics conference. This work centres on the lives and careers of physicists sitting in the front row at the Copenhagen meeting - Niels Bohr, Paul Ehrenfest, Lise Meitner, Wolfgang Pauli, Werner Heisenberg, and Paul Dirac.
