The author introduces readers to the discoveries of Archimedes, Kepler, Galileo, and other great scientists of the past, vividly recreates the experiments of Isaac Newton and Michael Faraday, and explains quantum mechanics, the principles of atomic and nuclear physics, and the theory of elementary particles in a lively and accessible language. While highlighting the scientific discoveries of the 20th century, George Gamow shares personal recollections of Ernest Rutherford, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, and other brilliant physicists with whom he worked and made scientific discoveries.
