Quantum Theory
Atom structure and Quantum Theory – La Vie de Niels Bohr
This is the story of the life of Niels Bohr told by the people who knew him the best, his colleagues, students and friends. From winning the Nobel Prize in 1921, to his heated debates with Einstein and his contribution to the development of the infamous atom bomb with Oppenheimer, Bohr’s life and work still fascinates to this day.
