COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Intriguing history submitted by scottij on July 29, 2014, 7:53am An accessible and fascinating account of the rivalry between Einstein and Bohr as they worked on understanding light and energy in the early 20th century. It is easy to understand and provided a great account of the philosophical differences in their approaches to science and what science's goals should be.
