Braving the sexism of the scientific world, she joined the prestigious Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Chemistry and became a prominent member of the international physics community. Of Jewish origin, Meitner fled Nazi Germany for Stockholm in 1938 and later moved to Cambridge, England. Her career was shattered when she fled Germany, and her scientific reputation was damaged when Hahn took full credit-and the 1944 Nobel Prize-for the work they had done together on nuclear fission. Ruth Sime's absorbing book is the definitive biography of Lise Meitner, the story of a brilliant woman whose extraordinary life illustrates not only the dramatic scientific progress but also the injustice and destruction that have marked the twentieth century. 410 0$aCalifornia studies in the history of science ;$vv. 13. 606 $aWomen physicists$zAustria$vBiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen physicists 676 $a530/.092 676 $aB 686 $aUB 3231$2rvk 700 $aSime$b Ruth Lewin$f1939-$01006252 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456248203321 996 $aLise Meitner$92315294 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01095nas 2200409 c 450 001 9910893683203321 005 20260218110515.0 035 $a(CKB)5280000000196838 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2517465-4 035 $a(OCoLC)1184270338 035 $a(OCoLC)643192719 035 $a(DE-101)997116315 035 $a(DE-599)2517465-4 035 $a(EXLCZ)995280000000196838 100 $a20090930b20042017 |y | 101 0 $ager 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aWelternährung$edie Zeitung der Welthungerhilfe 210 31$aBonn$cDt.
