Yet Schrödinger's scientific discoveries only scratch the surface of what makes him so fascinating. More rumpled than Einstein, a devotee of eastern religion and philosophy, and infamous for his alternative lifestyle, his major contribution to physics—and the work for which he received the Nobel Prize in 1933—was to some extent a disappointment to him. Regardless, Schrödinger's masterpiece became an important part of the new physics of his time. This book tells the story of Schrödinger's surprisingly colorful life during one of the most fertile and creative moments in the history of science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe first accessible, in-depth biography of the Nobel Prize-winning Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTakes you into the heart of the quantum revolution and explains the captivating world of quantum mechanics, which underpins all of modern science\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by bestselling author John Gribbin, one of today's greatest popular science writers whose other books include \u003ci\u003eIn Search of Schrödinger's Cat \u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eIn Search of the Multiverse\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eAlone in the Universe\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"John Gribbin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48304894869755,"sku":"9781118299265","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9781118299265.jpg?v=1772483601","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/erwin-schrodinger-and-the-quantum-revolution-9781118299265","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
