My Idea of the Land of Ideas: How the World Sees Germany

by Theo Sommer (Editor)

The volume contains 44 essays about Germany - observations, impressions, recollections, but also forthright considered judgements. The authors are scholars and journalists, politicians and industrialists, novelists, artists, architects and diplomats frm 25 countries in four continents - an impressive array of intellectuals in different walks of life. They all share a profound knowledge of Germany and a deep insight in the - frequently troubled - German soul.
