The institute was among the earliest established by the Kaiser Wilhelm Society, and its inauguration was one of the first steps in the development of Berlin-Dahlem into a center for scientific research. Its establishment was made possible by an endowment from Leopold Koppel, granted on the condition that Fritz Haber, well-known for his discovery of a method to synthesize ammonia from its elements, be made its director. The history of the institute has largely paralleled that of 20th-century Germany. It undertook controversial weapons research during World War I, followed by a "Golden Era" during the 1920s, in spite of financial hardships. 2019-04-25 23:55 2020-03-21 03:00:30 2020-04-01T10:30:33Z 2020-04-01T10:30:33Z 2011-10-27 book 1004883 OCN: 1100547835 9783110239546 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/25209 eng application/pdf n/a 1004883.pdf De Gruyter 102368 2b386f62-fc18-4108-bcf1-ade3ed4cf2f3 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9783110239546 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) 102368 KU Select 2018: STEM Backlist Books Knowledge Unlatched open access
