This vintage book contains Wolfgang Pauli's 1948 treatise, "Meson Theory
of Nuclear Forces". This fascinating exploration of a fundamental
scientific theory will appeal to those with an interest in scientific
development, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of
related literature. Contents include: "Various Types of Meson Fields",
"Pseudoscalar Symmetric Theory", "Vector-Field Theory", "Theory of
Extended Source", "Scattering of Mesons", "Magnetic Moment in the Strong
Coupling Case", "Magnetic Moment in the Weak Coupling Case", "Quantum
Theory of Scattering", et cetera. Wolfgang Ernst Pauli (1900-1958) was a
Swiss theoretical physicist and one of the forefathers of quantum
physics. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics for his "decisive
contribution through his discovery of a new law of Nature, the exclusion
principle or Pauli principle." Many vintage texts such as this are
becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind
that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern,
high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned
new biography of the author.
