Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. reprinted in the British trade journal Physics World in 1990, three separate and 5 lengthy replies from establishment physicists were printed in subsequent issues. For outsiders, especially scientists who rely on physicist's theories in their own fields, this situation is disquieting. Moreo…ver, many recall their introduction to quantum mechanics as a startling, if not shocking, experience. A molecular biologist related how he had started in theoretical physics but, after hearing the ideology of quantum mechanics, marched straight to the Reg istrar's office and switched fields. A colleague recalled how her undergraduate chemistry professor religiously entertained queries from the class - until one day he began with the words: "No questions will be permitted on today's lecture." The topic, of course, was quantum mechanics. My father, an organic chemist at a Midwestern university, also had to give that dreaded annual lecture. Around age 16, I picked up a little book he used to prepare and was perplexed by the author's tone, which seemed apologetic to the point of pleading. It was my first brush with the quantum theory. 6 Eventually, I went to graduate school in physics. By then I had acquired an historical bent, which developed out of an episode in my freshman year in college. To relieve the tedium of the introductory physics course, I set out to understand Einstein's theory of relativity (the so-called Special Theory of 1905, not the later and more difficult General Theory of 1915). This went badly at first. Please note the image in this listing is a stock photo and may not match the covers of the actual item. Book.

Contact seller5-star seller, Wick, David, 1950-. The infamous boundary : seven decades of controversy in quantum physics. with a mathematical appendix by William Farris. Boston: Birkhauser, 1995, xii, 244pp., very good hardcover. "Most physicists today accept quantum mechanics as the basis of their science. But many scientists of high renown over the past… seventy years, even Einstein as late as 1955, refused to accept the theory in its entirety. From the time in 1927 when Born and Heisenberg pronounced it as "a complete theory" to as recently as 1989 when Bell charged it with dividing the world of physics, the controversy has bubbled and sometimes boiled over. The author of this book has traced the major line of the argument over those years in a most engaging style with clear descriptions of the concepts and ideas. The book can be read with little or no background in mathematics and physics. It will be of particular interest to people who think about the philosophical underpinnings of science and its historical development.". 9780817637859 ISBN 0817637850.

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. A fine copy of the first printing of the paperback edition. The wrappers are clean and bright. One very faint reading crease to the spine and no creasing to the covers. Everything is square and tight, with sharp unbumped edges and corners. Inside there are no ownership inscriptions or othe…r markings of any kind. Overall near pristine. From the blurb: "This is a strong book. The author sticks to the science of the debate in quantum mechanics.and gives an accurate history of the development of the scientific arguments and experiments as they occurred chronologically".
