Synopsis

The Origin and Development of the Quantum Theory is a book written by Max Planck and published in 1922. The book is a comprehensive account of the history and evolution of the quantum theory from its inception to the time of writing. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which provides a detailed historical account of the development of the theory, while the second part deals with the mathematical and physical aspects of the theory. In the first part of the book, Planck discusses the early attempts to understand the nature of light and radiation, including the work of Newton, Huygens, and Maxwell. He then moves on to describe the contributions of Planck himself, Einstein, Bohr, and other scientists who played a key role in the development of the quantum theory. The second part of the book is more technical in nature and includes detailed discussions of the mathematical and physical principles underlying the quantum theory. Planck covers topics such as the wave-particle duality of light, the quantization of energy, and the uncertainty principle. Overall, The Origin and Development of the Quantum Theory is an important and influential work that provides a comprehensive and detailed account of one of the most significant scientific developments of the 20th century. It remains a valuable resource for students and researchers in the field of physics and quantum mechanics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
