The Strange Story of the Quantum: Banesh Hoffmann Dover Publications| ISBN: 0844607029 | 1980-06 | djvu (ocr) | pages | 5.75 Mb
Nonmathematical but thorough explanation of work of Planck, Einstein, Bohr, Pauli, Heisenberg, Dirac, etc. "Of the books attempting an account of the history and contents of modern atomic physics . . . this is the best." - Henry Margenau, Professor of Physics, Yale University. "Postscript 1959." Review: This book is absolutly amazing, with very clear language that anyone could almsot understand. The beginning of the book does really start off as some dramatic book, but in the end, when all the dots are connected, you get the clearest explanation of why quantum world is random, but not the psuedo-random like the toss of a coin. At the points when the things really need to be explained as clearly as possible to the reader, the author does just that and leaves the story writting outline aside, while making sure that the reader really comperhands all the unusual quantum phenomena. http://rapidshare.com/files/243550190/the_strange_story_of_the_quantum.zip
