Concerning the comorbidity between anxiety disorders and nicotine dependence, less epidemiological research findings are available. Those studies that investigated this issue, however, argue for an association between nicotine dependence and anxiety disorders (Breslau et al. 1994 Johnson ef al. 2000 Sonntag et al. 2000). Recently published EDSP findings have shown a prospective association specifically between prior nicotine dependence panic and the development of subsequent (Isensee et al. 2003).

In the summer of June 1924, Haber went home to Breslau once more to give the most reflective speech of his life. He d been invited to mark the fiftieth anniversary of Breslau s Academic-Literary Association, a social club that had molded two generations of upwardly mobile middle-class children, many of them, like Haber, Jewish.

Friedlieb Ferdinand Runge (Billwarder, nr. Hamburg, 8 February 1795-Oranienburg, 25 March 1867) was at first a pharmacist, then associate professor in Breslau (after a long residence in Paris), then in the Prussian Marine service in Berlin and Oranienburg. He published several technological and other papers, also on the motion of electrolytically polarised mercury, and... 

Fritz Haber (Breslau, 9 December 1868-Basel, 29 January 1934) studied in Berlin, Heidelberg and Charlottenberg, and worked at first on organic chemistry. In 1894 he became assistant to Bunte at the Technical High School at Karlsruhe, where he became associate professor (1898) and (1906) professor of technical chemistry. Whilst at Karlsruhe he investigated the synthesis of ammonia from its elements (1905, 1915) which afterwards (with the collaboration of Carl Bosch) led to the development of the manufacture of synthetic ammonia by the Badische Co. at Ludwigshafen, although the reaction under pressure (the technical process) was first carried out by Nernst (see above). In 1911 Haber became director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry at Berlin-Dahlem. He received the Nobel Prize in 1919. He worked on chemical equilibria in flames (1895 f.), the electrolytic reduction of nitrobenzene (1898 f.), autoxidation (1900 f.), the synthesis of nitric oxide in the electric arc (1908 f.), and on many branches of electrochemistry. His books contain useful material, the one on thermodynamics an unsuccessful approach to the Nernst heat theorem. 

Hans Heinrich Landolt (Zurich, 5 December 1831-Berlin, 15 March 1910), of a distinguished Swiss family, lost his parents early in life. He studied in Zurich under Lowig, whom he followed to Breslau, working on arsenic ethyl (1853, see p. 510), then in Berlin under Mitscherlich and H. Rose, then in Heidelberg under Bunsen. He was assistant in Zurich and Breslau, privat-docent in Breslau (1856), associate professor (1858) and professor (1867) in Bonn, professor in Aachen (1869), the Agricultural Institute in Berlin (1880), and finally (1891) Rammelsberg s successor in the Second Chemical Laboratory in Berlin. His most important work was in physical chemistry. 

Victor von Richter (Doblau, Curland, 3 April 1841 (O.S.)-Breslau, 8 October 1891) studied in Dorpat and was assistant and docent in the Technological Institute, and the University, St. Petersburg (1864-72 Dr. chem. 1872), professor in the Institute of Agronomy in Novo-Alexandria, Poland (1872), privatdocent (1875) and associate professor (1879) in Breslau. Most of his numerous publications deal with the aromatic series. He wrote textbooks of inorganic and organic chemistry which went through several editions and translations.2 Max M. Richter (b. 1861), professor in Karlsruhe, compiled a useful dictionary which served as an index to the earlier editions of Beil-stein s treatise. ...
