'With the outbreak of World War I, Nernst's academic pursuits virtually came to a halt as he was drawn into military administration, chemical gas warfare, and service as automobile chauffeur for the German army on the move from Belgium to France. As is evident from the preface to Nernst's 1918 monograph, Die theoretischen und experimentellen Grundlagen des neuen Wärmesatzes, which was written during a time of 'Trübsal und Not,' Nernst was able to immerse himself further in the new theoretical physics, namely, quantum mechanics, and to reflect on its meaning and implications for his beloved and not yet controversial Wärmesatz. In this volume he presented in a most comprehensive way his mature ideas on chemical thermodynamics' (Erwin N. Hiebert in D.S.B. XV: 444; full article is pp. 432-53). N° de ref. del artículo 15778
