Max Born (1882-1970) was a German theoretical physicist credited with bringing the theory of quantum dynamics to the United States in the form of a series of lectures delivered at MIT and contained within the present volume. At the time I began this course of lectures, HeisenbergÕs first paper on the new quantum theory had just appeared. Here his masterly treatment gave the quantum theory an entirely ne turnÉ As the course proceeded, further achievements of the new method came to my notice. I was able to introduce some of them into the lectures. PauliÕs theory of the hydrogen atom is a case in point.Ó (Preface). Octavo. 200 pp. 43 figs. in text. Original gilt-stamped blue cloth, a bit rubbed. Binding slightly loose. Signature of previous owner. A very good copy. First edition. ÒI wrote the original text in German. It was then translated into English by Dr. W P Allis and Mr. Hans Muller, and read through by me.Ó (Preface) The original German text appeared after the English translation.
