Review: The Hunting Of The Quark: A True Story Of Modern Physics

Nutzerbericht  - Jessica Petree - Goodreads

This is one of the favorite books I've ever read. The story of the beginning of quantum mechanics is fascinating! The great scientists who brought it about were hilarious characters without equal. I love the author's descriptions of them, and the drama surrounding the existence of the quark. Vollständige Rezension lesen
