April 2022Goodbye to Ignorance!
For Better Science Education
by Ernst Peter Fischer
Our lives and daily routine are full of science. But when it comes to gravity or quantum theory, DNA or black holes, a great many people feel like scientific illiterates – and indeed they are. “I don’t understand it anymore”, many say. Too many, according to Ernst Peter Fischer. His mission is to reawaken our curiosity with his exciting and challenging appeal to appreciate how important, fascinating and lively science is. Do we really want to be immature about science? Fischer’s book is an endeavour so the light of scientific reason can finally shine brightly.

May 2021On the Amazement of the World
(Im-)Possibilities of science
by Ernst Peter Fischer
The current debate on the corona virus shows that knowledge, and with that science, plays a central role in the struggle to preserve humanity. Knowledge provides opportunities to influence the world, for better or worse. In times when emotions and appeals to baser instincts often triumph over reason and humanity, Ernst Peter Fischer reminds us of the goal of science that has been pursued since the Enlightenment: “to facilitate the conditions of human existence”. In his new book, the bestselling author takes us on an instructive, varied and enjoyable journey through the history of knowledge and science.

May 2021The Humane Idea
Rudolf Virchow and Hermann von Helmholtz. The legacy of the Charité
by Ernst Peter Fischer, Detlev Ganten
Two of today’s leading scientists, Ernst Peter Fischer and Detlev Ganten, reconfirm the legacy of two influential 19th-century researchers. To mark the 200th birthday of Rudolf Virchow (1821–1902) and Hermann von Helmholtz (1821–1894), they explain why pioneering research and holistic thinking are still relevant for health science and practice, and for a sustainable balance of people, society and the environment. The historical achievement of Virchow and Helmholtz continues today with the work of researchers like Emmanuelle Charpentier and Christian Drosten, so ensuring that the humane idea continues to be fruitful in the future. An insight into the history of medical science.
