"The Idea of the Atom - The Ultimate essence of physical reality, indivisible and eternal - has been the focus of a quest that has engaged humanity for 2,500 years. That quest is captured in The Atom in the History of Human Thought."--Jacket.
On the constitution of atoms and molecules
by Bohr, Niels
fromClassic Texts in the Sciences
Niels Bohr's atomic theory of 1913 is one of the absolute highlights in the history of modern science. It was only with this work that physicists realized that quantum theory is an essential ingredient in atomic physics, and it was also only with this work that Rutherford's nucl…
