By Finn Aaserud,John L. Heilbron

Niels Bohr ranks with Einstein one of the physicists of the twentieth century. He rose to this prestige via his invention of the quantum idea of the atom and his management in its security and improvement. He additionally ranks with Einstein in his humanism and his experience of accountability to his technology and the society that enabled him to create it. Our e-book provides unpublished excerpts from vast correspondence among Bohr and his fast kin, and makes use of it to
describe and study the mental and cultural heritage to his invention. The publication additionally incorporates a reprinting of the 3 papers of 1913 - the Trilogy- within which Bohr labored out the provisional foundation of a quantum concept of the atom.
