Enriching the earth: Fritz Haber, Carl Bosch, and the transformation of world food production

·2001·Choice Reviews Online

Abstract

Vaclav Smil admits in the postscript of this book that he had planned originally to write a biography of Fritz Haber.He does in fact include a summary of both Haber's and Carl Bosch's lives in the postscript, but the book itself is dedicated to the discovery, marketing, and consequences of the synthesis of ammonia.The book is interdisciplinary; with individual chapters being of interest to specific groups, but with its historical overview will appeal to a wide group of readers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
