This is a history book, covering the birth of quaternions and related concepts throughout the nineteenth century, and how theseĮvolved into our modern vector system. Michael Crowe: A History of Vector Analysis.This is a science fiction novel which has more to say about the philosophy of physics than do most philosophers and Frank Wilczek and Betsy Devine: Longing for the Harmonies: Themes and variations.David Mermin: Boojums all the way through: Communicating science in prosaic.In his unique no-nonsense style, Feynman lectures on what physics is all about.ĭown-to-earth examples keep him from straying into the kind of metaphysics of which he is Richard Feynman: The Character of Physical Law.Nevertheless, this is an excellent book of recent (1989) physics articles, written by several Particle theory, quantum mechanics, chaos and nonlinearity, low-temperature physics, and phase transitions. This is one big book, and it takes time to look through topics as diverse as general relativity, astrophysics,
