  • This is the first major biography of Max Weber to appear in more than 80 years.
  • Radkau was able to make use of previously unavailable source material, including the extensive correspondence of Max Weber and that of his wife, Marianne Weber.
  • Drawing on this new source material, Radkau is able to paint a picture of Max Weber the man, and of his tortured personal and private life, which had previously been completely hidden from view.
  • This book has been a huge success in Germany, where it was on the bestseller list. It will quickly establish itself as the most thorough and authoritative account of the life of Max Weber – probably the most important and influential figure in the history of the social sciences.
