Forfatter af Treatise on Thermodynamics
Om forfatteren
Max Planck, a German physicist, received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Munich (1879) and taught at the University of Berlin from 1891 to 1928. By studying black-body radiation, he discovered that energy is not continuous, but is emitted or absorbed in fundamental, individual units vis mere called quanta. Quantum theory originated from his 1900 paper, representing a radical break with classical physics that even Planck could not wholly accept. For his work in quantum theory, Planck was awarded the 1918 Nobel Prize in physics. Other physicists were able to apply the quantum concept by following up on his revolutionary idea. Albert Einstein's 1905 paper, explaining the photoelectric effect, and Niels Bohr's 1913 model of the hydrogen atom were two applications of Planck's theory. Along with Einstein, Planck ranks as one of the two founders of modern physics. He was the acknowledged leader of German science in the 1930s, as president of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute. However, he resigned this post in 1937 to protest the Nazi treatment of Jewish scientists. He remained in Germany throughout World War II. After the war the Institute was renamed the Max Planck Institute, and he again served as its president until his death. Planck's personal life contained many tragedies: death of a wife, two sons (one was killed in World War I, the other was executed in 1944 for participation in an unsuccessful conspiracy to assassinate Hitler), and two daughters (in childbirth).

Die Physik im kampe um die Weltanschauung af Max Planck
This is an offprint of a lecture given in 1935 by Nobel Prize winner, Max Planck. The presentation was given March 6, 1935 .at Harnack-Haus, Berlin-Dahlem. It is essentially a pamphlet of the talk, given by Professor Planck to friends, and a little card saying in German "Presented by the author" is included in my copy. It is a relatively hopeful statement about the condition of the world at a precarious time for Germany and the world.
This treatise builds logically from the basics of temperature and heat to build the laws of Thermodynamics. The surprising thing is that back in the 1920s when this edition came out, scientists didn't know exactly how to define the Second Law of Thermodynamics. That is the one that says that Entropy of a system tends toward disorder.
The book is not perfect, there are things that annoyed me about it. The main thing was that Planck used the CGS system of measure. I suppose I can understand that it was just typical of how measurements were made back then. That is why it didn't lower my score for the book at all. At least he used a form of metric.… (mere)
