The unification of Germany is the most important change in
Central Europe in the last four decades. Understanding this rapid
and unforeseen development has raised old fears as well as inspired
new hopes. In order to make sense out of the bewildering process
and to help both expert and lay readers understand the changes and
consequences, an American historian and a German social scientist
put together this collection of central texts on German
unification, the first of its kind. An invaluable reference
tool.
