The Science of War: Canadian Scientists and Allied Military Technology during the Second World War The Second World War marked a significant turning point in the history of humanity, with technological advancements playing a crucial role in shaping the outcome of the conflict. In Canada, the war effort saw an unprecedented collaboration between scientists, industry, and government, leading to groundbreaking innovations in weapons and defense technology. This book delves into the critical contributions made by Canadian scientists working through the National Research Council and the Department of National Defence, exploring how and why Canada became a major player in military technology, including the development of radar, RDX explosives, proximity fuses, chemical and biological warfare, and even the atomic bomb. The story begins before 1939, when Canada had a minuscule military establishment and limited industrial and academic capacity for research and development. With the outbreak of war, everything changed dramatically.
The Science of War: Canadian Scientists and Allied Military Technology during the Second World War Вторая мировая война ознаменовала собой значительный поворотный момент в истории человечества, при этом технологические достижения сыграли решающую роль в формировании исхода конфликта. В Канаде военные усилия сопровождались беспрецедентным сотрудничеством между учеными, промышленностью и правительством, что привело к новаторским инновациям в области вооружений и оборонных технологий. Эта книга углубляется в критический вклад канадских ученых, работающих через Национальный исследовательский совет и Министерство национальной обороны, исследуя, как и почему Канада стала крупным игроком в военных технологиях, включая разработку радаров, взрывчатых веществ гексогена, неконтактных взрывателей, химической и биологической войны и даже атомной бомбы. История начинается до 1939 года, когда Канада имела крошечное военное учреждение и ограниченные промышленные и академические возможности для исследований и разработок. С началом войны все резко изменилось.
The Science of War : Canadian Scientists and Allied Military Technology During the Second World War La Seconde Guerre mondiale a marqué un tournant important dans l'histoire de l'humanité, les progrès technologiques ayant joué un rôle crucial dans l'issue du conflit. Au Canada, l'effort de guerre s'est accompagné d'une collaboration sans précédent entre les scientifiques, l'industrie et le gouvernement, ce qui a mené à des innovations novatrices en matière d'armement et de technologie de défense. Ce livre s'appuie sur les contributions critiques de scientifiques canadiens travaillant par l'intermédiaire du Conseil national de recherches et du ministère de la Défense nationale, en examinant comment et pourquoi le Canada est devenu un acteur majeur dans les technologies militaires, y compris la mise au point de radars, d'explosifs à hexogène, de dispositifs de mise à feu sans contact, de guerre chimique et biologique et même d'une bombe atomique. L'histoire remonte à 1939, lorsque le Canada disposait d'une minuscule institution militaire et de capacités industrielles et universitaires limitées pour la recherche et le développement. Depuis le début de la guerre, les choses ont radicalement changé.

Die Wissenschaft des Krieges: Kanadische Wissenschaftler und alliierte Militärtechnologie während des Zweiten Weltkriegs Der Zweite Weltkrieg markierte einen bedeutenden Wendepunkt in der Geschichte der Menschheit, wobei der technologische Fortschritt den Ausgang des Konflikts entscheidend mitgestaltete. In Kanada wurden die militärischen Bemühungen von einer beispiellosen Zusammenarbeit zwischen Wissenschaftlern, Industrie und Regierung begleitet, die zu bahnbrechenden Innovationen in der Rüstungs- und Verteidigungstechnologie führte. Dieses Buch befasst sich mit den kritischen Beiträgen kanadischer Wissenschaftler, die durch den National Research Council und das Department of National Defense arbeiten und untersuchen, wie und warum Kanada zu einem wichtigen Akteur in der Militärtechnologie geworden ist, einschließlich der Entwicklung von Radaren, Hexogenexplosionen, berührungslosen Zündern, chemischer und biologischer Kriegsführung und sogar Atombomben. Die Geschichte beginnt vor 1939, als Kanada eine winzige militärische Institution und begrenzte industrielle und akademische Möglichkeiten für Forschung und Entwicklung hatte. Mit Kriegsbeginn änderte sich alles schlagartig.
Nauka o wojnie: Kanadyjscy naukowcy i sojusznicza technologia wojskowa podczas II wojny światowej stanowiła znaczący punkt zwrotny w historii ludzkości, a postęp technologiczny odgrywa decydującą rolę w kształtowaniu wyniku konfliktu. W Kanadzie wysiłkom wojennym towarzyszyła bezprecedensowa współpraca między naukowcami, przemysłem i rządem, prowadząca do pionierskich innowacji w dziedzinie broni i technologii obronnych. Książka ta zagłębia się w krytyczny wkład kanadyjskich naukowców pracujących za pośrednictwem National Research Council i Departamentu Obrony Narodowej, badając, w jaki sposób i dlaczego Kanada stała się głównym graczem w technologii wojskowej, w tym rozwoju radarów, materiałów wybuchowych RDX, bezpieczników zbliżeniowych, chemicznych i biologicznych działań wojennych, a nawet bomby atomowej. Historia rozpoczyna się przed 1939, kiedy Kanada miała malutki zakład wojskowy i ograniczone możliwości przemysłowe i akademickie dla badań i rozwoju. Wraz z wybuchem wojny wszystko bardzo się zmieniło.

Savaş Bilimi: İkinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında Kanadalı Bilim Adamları ve Müttefik Askeri Teknoloji, insanlık tarihinde önemli bir dönüm noktası oldu ve teknolojik gelişmeler çatışmanın sonucunu şekillendirmede kritik bir rol oynadı. Kanada'da, savaş çabalarına bilim adamları, endüstri ve hükümet arasında benzeri görülmemiş bir işbirliği eşlik etti ve bu da silah ve savunma teknolojisinde öncü yeniliklere yol açtı. Bu kitap, Ulusal Araştırma Konseyi ve Ulusal Savunma Bakanlığı aracılığıyla çalışan Kanadalı bilim adamlarının kritik katkılarını inceleyerek, Kanada'nın radarların, RDX patlayıcılarının, yakınlık sigortalarının, kimyasal ve biyolojik savaşın ve hatta atom bombasının geliştirilmesi de dahil olmak üzere askeri teknolojide nasıl ve neden önemli bir oyuncu haline geldiğini araştırıyor. Hikaye, Kanada'nın küçük bir askeri kuruma sahip olduğu ve araştırma ve geliştirme için sınırlı endüstriyel ve akademik fırsatlara sahip olduğu 1939'dan önce başlıyor. Savaşın başlamasıyla her şey dramatik bir şekilde değişti.
كان علم الحرب: العلماء الكنديون والتكنولوجيا العسكرية المتحالفة خلال الحرب العالمية الثانية نقطة تحول مهمة في تاريخ البشرية، حيث لعب التقدم التكنولوجي دورًا حاسمًا في تشكيل نتيجة الصراع. في كندا، رافق المجهود الحربي تعاون غير مسبوق بين العلماء والصناعة والحكومة، مما أدى إلى ابتكارات رائدة في الأسلحة وتكنولوجيا الدفاع. يتعمق هذا الكتاب في المساهمات الحاسمة للعلماء الكنديين الذين يعملون من خلال المجلس الوطني للبحوث ووزارة الدفاع الوطني، ويستكشفون كيف ولماذا أصبحت كندا لاعبًا رئيسيًا في التكنولوجيا العسكرية، بما في ذلك تطوير الرادارات ومتفجرات RDX وصمامات القرب والكيميائية والبيولوجية الحرب وحتى القنبلة الذرية. تبدأ القصة قبل عام 1939، عندما كان لدى كندا مؤسسة عسكرية صغيرة وفرص صناعية وأكاديمية محدودة للبحث والتطوير. مع اندلاع الحرب، تغير كل شيء بشكل كبير.
