Physics Bulletin

Essays 1958–1962 on Atomic Physics and Human Knowledge

F. I. G. RAWLINS

Published May 1, 1964• 51 citations

Abstract

By Niels Bohr London: John Wiley & Sons Ltd. 1964 . Pp. x + 100. Price 30s. In an ideal (academic) world, honours students in their final year would be expected to regard the reading of this slight book as a 'must'. But if slight in bulk it is weighty in significance, as one would expect it to be, almost the last will and testament of a master mind.

If one compares it with two widely used texts, Slater's Modern Physics and Born's Atomic Physics, this book is more advanced and comprehensive than Slater's, less so than Born's.

There are already several books on the market which 'lead the university student to an understanding, fairly early in his course, of the way in which quantum theory answers the questions posed by experimental observations'. This, however, is not one of them, for although it covers an enormous amount of ground it is not likely to lead to real understanding.

Not only is it edited with great originality and flair but it has been splendidly produced.
