This is the fascinating experience of reading Letters on Wave Mechanics , the correspondence between H. A. Lorentz, Max Planck, Erwin Schrödinger, and Albert Einstein. These remarkable letters illuminate not only the basis of Schrödinger’s work in wave mechanics, but also how great scientific minds debated and challenged the ever-changing theories of the day and ultimately embraced an elegant solution to the riddles of quantum theory. Their collected correspondence offers insight into both the personalities and professional aspirations that played a part in this theoretical breakthrough. This authorized book features rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the Albert Einstein Archives at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Review: An amazing correspondence between giants. - This is an amazing collection of letters between Einstein and three other giants who founded the modern theory of quantum mechanics and of relativity: Planck, Schödinger and Lorentz. I especially enjoyed the correspondence between Einstein and Schrödinger, two men who had somewhat similar lives in the difficult times before the second world war: both refused to submit to nazi rules and refused to accept war, both ran away from the approaching war and both had the deepest thoughts on the foundation of quantum theories. The correspondence is also interesting for the way the two men shared their opinions, always avoiding difficult mathematical equations to better evidence the roots of the perplexities and paradoxes solicited by the theory. As a theoretical physicist, I strongly recommend all readers to read this 'little' book, which is far more interesting than any textbook on quantum theories. Review: Documentation of the exchange of ideas by some of the world's greatest minds. - A wonderful exchange of ideas and formulations by the leading minds of modern physics. A documentation of extraordinary relationships and meetings. The math went beyond my capability, but that did not detract from the interaction and fermentation of ideas. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,627,584 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #170 in Waves & Wave Mechanics (Books) #1,096 in Quantum Theory (Books) #6,741 in Essays & Correspondence (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 37 Reviews | ## Images ![Letters on Wave Mechanics: Correspondence with H.

WHEN PUTTING THE PUZZLE PIECES TOGETHER, NOTHING HELPS MORE THAN TO READ WHAT THE MASTERS SAID TO EACH OTHER. EXCELLENT DOCUMENTATION PERHAPS NOT AVAILABLE IN ANY OTHER ONE PLACE.
