“The lively and very readable presentation offers a multifaceted survey that pays attention not only to the political and economical developments but also to cultural and artistic elements.” • H-Soz-u-Kult “…fills an important gap in the survey literature of modern German history… extraordinarily readable, compact and comprehensive coverage… a balanced presentation of the arguments for and against positions on all sides… Apt and lively quotations from contemporaries and present-day historians inform the story throughout. The reader will have a clear sense of historical progression and major connections, while leading personalities in all fields are recognizable characters. In all, a fine achievement.” • Central European History
