Going Nuclear
How the Atom Will Save the WorldEnergy is necessary for everything we value in life, and the world will need gargantuan amounts of safe and reliable power to eliminate poverty, decarbonise the economy, and feed entirely new demands like artificial intelligence. Going Nuclear shows where this energy will come from—and not as a last resort, but as the enabler of a new chapter in human progress. This is a thrilling book: vividly written, filled with fascinating facts, and inspiring in its vision for the future.

Crystal Growth Fundamentals
Thermodynamics of CrystallizationPeter Rudolph, Professor Dr. habil, Dr. Ing., was born at July 1st, 1945 in Gera (Germany). He received the Diploma of Electronic Technology at the Technical University of Lviv (Ukraina) in 1969. The PhD (Dr. Engineer) of Solid State Physics and Technology he obtainted at the same university in 1972. From 1973 to 1993 he was employed at the Institute of Crystallography and Material Science of the Humboldt University in Berlin. In 1985 he became University Professor. During that period he managed the laboratory of crystal growth and growth equipment engineering for IV-VI and II-VI materials. In 1978 and 1992 he prepared crystal growth experiments for manned space flights. From 1991 to 1993 he was member of the expert group of the ESA on melt growth experiments. From 1993 to 1994 and in 1998 he was employed as Guest Professor at the Tohoku University in Sendai (Japan). From 1994 up to 2011 he was employed at the Institute for Crystal Growth in Berlin as head of competence field technology developments (III-Vs and silicon crystallization under magnetic field for PV). After his retirement in 2011 until today he is still active as consultant for crystal growth fundamentals and technology. To date he acted as related lecturer in more than 30 countries. He was a Member of the Executive Committee of International Organisation of Crystal Growth (2004 - 2011) and the President of the German Association for Crystal Growth DGKK (2010 - 2011). In 2004 he was the co-organizer of the the twelfth International Summer School on Crystal Growth (ISSCG-12) in Berlin. In 1990 he was awarded by the Medal of the German Association of Crystallography (VFK). In 2001 and 2008 he was presented with the innovation prize of Berlin-Brandenburg. In 2023 he received the Laudise Prize, the IOCG's highest international award for crystal technology. His publication work comprises 2 monographs, 8 editions (including Vol IIA and IIB of Elsevier’s Handbock of Crystal Growth 2015), 32 book contributions, about 230 original papers and 35 patent publications.
