{"product_id":"establishing-quantum-physics-in-gttingen-arne-schirrmacher-9783030227265","title":"Establishing Quantum Physics in Gtingen: David Hilbert, Max Born, and Peter Debye in Context, 1900-1926","description":"Quantum mechanics - the grandiose theory that describes nature down to the submicroscopic level - was first formulated in Gtingen in 1925. How did this come about and why is it that Gtingen became the pre-eminent location for a revolution in physics? This book is the first to investigate the wide range of factors that were pivotal for quantum physics to be established in Gtingen. These include the process of generational change of physics professors, the hopes of mathematicians seeking new fields of research, and a new understanding of the interplay of experiment, theory and philosophy.\u003cbr\u003eThe other books in the four-volume collection address the beginnings of quantum physics research at Copenhagen, Berlin, and Munich. These works emerged from an expansive study on the quantum revolution as a major transformation of physical knowledge undertaken by the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science and the Fritz Haber Institute (2006-2012).\u003cbr\u003eFor more on this project, see the dedicated Feature Story, The Networks of Early Quantum Theory, at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, https: \/\/www.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de\/feature-story\/networks-early-quantum-theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arne Schirrmacher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 303022726X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030227265\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.28d","brand":"Arne Schirrmacher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125933469951,"sku":"9783030227265","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b98430f9-1ee4-4919-9638-13270f135077.jpg?v=1687445383","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/establishing-quantum-physics-in-gttingen-arne-schirrmacher-9783030227265","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
