I'm a rotten Googler, so here's a question to my readers.
I remember reading not long ago a remarkable statistic about the number of German Jewish Nobel Prize winners prior to the second World War - that is, the number of German Nobel winners who were Jews was surprisingly high.
Can anyone point me to where I might see this statistic, or where I might have read it or read it now?
I don't have a really good answer, but if you compare this list of Jewish winners to this list of all Nobel winners in Physics, for example, 5 of the 12 German winners in Physics pre-WWII were Jewish.
sorry, my contact info above is wrong.
Excellent! Thanks, I'll check those out.
