Wolfgang Lutz, RIP

Peter of Hyperlipid points us to the fact that Dr. Wolfgang Lutz passed away. His book Life without Bread is available from Amazon. I'm not really familiar Dr. Lutz, but I'm always impressed with the pre-WWII Germans. One of the more diabolical aspects of National Socialism was discrediting the beautiful culture German intellectuals had developed. As Scott Locklin has argued, the modern age with its fetishes for technological gadgets have nothing on the scientific progress of an earlier age.
