This Open Access book discusses the progress of science and the transfer of scientific knowledge to technological application. Based on a case study of the physical chemist Fritz Haber's discovery of ammonia synthesis between 1903 and 1909, the book places Haber's work in historical and scientific (physicochemical) context.
