Was watching some youtube videos on Cantor tonight and found a mention of this book. Ordered from Amazon.

Bringing this back to life to post a link to an interesting article on some physics history. It's about a topic that I have no clue about -- have tried for years but can't even begin to understand it -- quantum mechanics. It's about Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr and their fundamentally different views of physics.

https://www.cantorsparadise.com/the-...e-baa0929a78b5

Anyway, I found it an enjoyable read and quite a bit more understandable, to me, than most other articles that I have found on this subject.

I hope that some here find it interesting.

Thank you for sharing Mark, a very good read.

This one contains some of the same characters but set around WW2 and the atomic bomb. Crazy to think of the discoveries and thinking back around 100 year ago.
