pp. 131-139

Abstract

toward the end of the war when Neurath worked at the War Ministry in Vienna, he was also appointed director of the Museum of War Economy in Leipzig, which was a venture of the Chamber of Commerce there. I became its general secretary. Models and charts were in the making. This was the beginning of those activities of visualization which Neurath continued and fully developed in his Social and Economic Museum in Vienna.
