No one better represents the plight and the conduct of German intellectuals under Hitler than Werner Heisenberg, whose task it was to build an atomic bomb for Nazi Germany. The controversy surrounding Heisenberg still rages, because of the nature of his work and the regime for which it was undertaken. What precisely did Heisenberg know about the physics of the atomic bomb? How deep was his loyalty to the German government during the Third Reich? Assuming that he had been able to build a bomb, would he have been willing? These questions, the moral and the scientific, are answered by Paul Lawrence Rose with greater accuracy and breadth of documentation than any other historian has yet achieved. Digging deep into the archival record among formerly secret technical reports, Rose establishes that Heisenberg never overcame certain misconceptions about nuclear fission, and as a result the German leaders never pushed for atomic weapons. In fact, Heisenberg never had to face the moral problem of whether he should design a bomb for the Nazi regime. Only when he and his colleagues were interned in England and heard about Hiroshima did Heisenberg realize that his calculations were wrong. He began at once to construct an image of himself as a "pure" scientist who could have built a bomb but chose to work on reactor design instead. This was fiction, as Rose demonstrates: in reality, Heisenberg blindly supported and justified the cause of German victory. The question of why he did, and why he misrepresented himself afterwards, is answered through Rose's subtle analysis of German mentality and the scientists' problems of delusion and self-delusion. This fascinating study is a profound effort to understand one of the twentieth century's great enigmas.

Each one of us truly desires to be happy, to be loved, and to be free. Given that, why is this so rare? Why are so few people truly happy? Why do so few have a deep inner peace? And more importantly, what can be done about it?This short work, rooted in an authentically Catholic spirituality, and written in an engaging, easy to understand style, answers those questions, starting with a basic explanation of spiritual woundedness - the fundamental cause of so much emotional bondage, unhappiness, and inability to love or be loved - and following that, provides an eminently practical guide for healing. Given the chaos and confusion reigning in Church and society, it is more urgent than ever for each person who really wants to heal, who really wants to have a truly deep and profound relationship with Jesus, to have a reliable guide. Healing: Selections from the Sermons of Fr Phil Wolfe FSSP meets that need.
