Description

Paperback / softback. New. This book provides a panoramic view from 1927-1938 of the development of a physical theory that has been on the cutting edge of theoretical physics ever since 1927: quantum electrodynamics. The Frame-Setting Essay and the published papers of Bohr, Dirac, Heisenberg and Pauli take us on a fascinating analysis into the meaning and structure of a scientific theory.

First line

Prior to and into the first decade of Niels Bohr's 1913 atomic theory, physicists dealt with physical systems in which the usual space and time pictures of classical physics were assumed trustworthy and so could be extrapolated to any sort of matter in motion, for example, electrons move like billiard balls and light behaves analogously to water waves.

From the rear cover

This book provides a panoramic view during 1927-1938 of the development of a physical theory that has been on the cutting edge of theoretical physics ever since P.A.M. Dirac's quantization of the electrodynamics field in 1927.
