Leon Rosenfeld: Physics, Philosophy, and Politics in the Twentieth Century Hardcover - 2012
by Anja Skaar Jacobsen
From the jacket flap
This book is a social-intellectual biography of the Belgian physicist Lon Rosenfeld (19041974). Rosenfeld was at the center of modern theoretical physics and he became the Danish physicist Niels Bohr's right-hand man. Rosenfeld was a perceptive, polyglot cosmopolitan, whose life crossed those of many important people in many countries. He was also a strong integrated personality capable of performing exotic calculations at one moment, while disentangling subtle philosophical questions or intervening in a political discussion the next all at the highest level. This book aims at a broad audience interested in contextual history of twentieth century physics. No specialized knowledge of physics is required to read it.
