{"product_id":"new-foundations-of-quantum-mechanics-alfred-lande-9781107593541","title":"New Foundations of Quantum Mechanics","description":"Originally published in 1965, the aim of this book was to challenge the dualistic view of physics, that is, the assumption that beams of electrons consist of discrete particles and of waves. Lande argues that this dualistic view is unnecessary, not only on methodological grounds but also from the standpoint of physics. Lande sets out to point out that there are faults in the purely physical arguments, which have led to the dualistic doctrine and shows that by making use of the quantum rule for the exchange of linear momentum, established by W. Duane in 1923, wave-like phenomena can be fully explained on a unitary particle theory of matter. Chapters cover a variety of subjects and range from 'Dualism versus quantum mechanics' to the 'Origin of the quantum rules'. Appendices are included for reference. This book will be of value to students and scholars of the history of physics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alfred Lande\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107593549\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107593541\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.42d","brand":"Alfred Lande","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44067068150015,"sku":"9781107593541","price":46.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fd070846-9af4-4765-b152-5d1d4d74808d.jpg?v=1685410999","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/new-foundations-of-quantum-mechanics-alfred-lande-9781107593541","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
