This book offers a collection of texts by Carl Friedrich von
Weizsaecker (1912-2007), a major German universal scientist who was
a pioneer in physics, philosophy, religion, politics and peace
research. He started as an assistant to the physicist, Werner
Heisenberg, held professorships in theoretical physics
(Strasbourg), physics (Goettingen) and philosophy (Hamburg) and was
a co-director (with Juergen Habermas) of a Max Planck Institute for
Research into living conditions in a world of science and
technology in Starnberg. This unique anthology spans the wide scope
of his innovative thinking including his philosophical
self-reflections, on peace, nuclear strategy, security and
defensive defense, on nuclear energy, on the conditions of freedom,
on his experience of religion, including poetry from his early
youth. Most texts appear in English for the first time and are
selected for use in seminars on physics, philosophy, religion,
politics and peace research.
