I welcome feedback on this book and/or orders; and of course comments on any other topics.

Urgently seeking a collaborator (male/female) for the following two (small) books: pioneers in human history in general. How does one become a pioneer? What makes a pioneer? The second is very specific: what did German-Jewish physicians achieve in a single field? The focus is not on their suffering but on their achievements. To keep it manageable, a small specialty: radiotherapy/X-ray. Both books exist as concepts; now a brilliant co-author is needed!!
