Description:

This collection contains

  • a new publication of the book: Heisenberg, Born, Schrödinger and Auger, On Modern Physics (Collier Books, New York 1962)
  • Werner Heisenberg, The development of quantum mechanics, Nobel Lecture, December 11, 1933
  • Erwin Schrödinger, The fundamental idea of wave mechanics, Nobel Lecture, December 12, 1933
  • Max Born, The statistical interpretation of quantum mechanics, Nobel Lecture, December 11, 1954
In this collection three Nobel laureates and a renowned authority on space exploration discuss a wide range of issues - from lessons that can be learned from the ancient Greek philosophers, to the advancements in fundamental physics in the twentieth century, to the dark implications of scientific discoveries, to the methods and limits of scientific knowledge - in a language that is understandable by a wide audience. The collections ends with the Nobel lectures of Heisenberg, Schrödinger and Born.
