Hard Cover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Photographs (illustrator). First Edition. 200 pages. This collection of narratives by eighteen senior physicists of their student days in the 1920s and 1930s paints a vivid picture of a life of study at a variety of institutions. The authors give students' -eye views of some of the legendary figures of physics and describe with wit and humour their styles, abilities and idiosyncrasies as teachers. Their discussions of lectures, syllabuses, practical classes, examinations, supervision, fellow students and financial support illuminate the educational milieu of a period when physics was undergoing dramatic changes; they were made aware of living in an inspired age of discovery. Many became the mentors of the succeeding generation of physicists and comment on the changing patterns of teaching and research over the last fifty years. An introduction by the editor relates the developments in the physics of the period and sketches the evolution of the place of physics in the educational environment. Appendices give information about the authors and their universities. Size: 8vo. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 125272
