"Coping with Fritz Haber's Somber Literary Shadow" #chempaperaday 179

This is a beautiful article on Fritz Haber and how he was represented in several forms of art.

"Fritz Haber is often this scapegoat...Most of us are also teachers. We have to do better than the usual, traditional technical presentation of the ammonia synthesis, invoking it as a fine illustration of Le Chatelier's Principle. We have to talk also about Haber, the historical figure and the person. His choices and agony are a part of us."
