Institute for Advanced Study

More about the book

The Institute for Advanced Study, established in 1930 by philanthropists Louis and Caroline Bamberger, aimed to revolutionize higher education in America. Under the leadership of Abraham Flexner, it became a sanctuary for scholars, notably Jewish intellectuals escaping Nazi Germany, including Albert Einstein, who served on its faculty until 1955. The institute fostered an environment of intellectual freedom and inclusivity, attracting renowned figures like J. Robert Oppenheimer and John von Neumann, and solidifying its legacy as a hub of groundbreaking research and thought.
