Emile Zuckerkandl (1922–2013) was the only grandson of the famous Austrian journalist, Berta Zuckerkandl. After years fleeing from the Nazi regime, he managed to build a major scientific career in the US. The memories of the 90-year-old paint a vivid picture of 20th-century history with all its highs and lows. An Optimist’s Diary.
