Description

One of the earliest of the popular science book genre, it is a philosophical summary of the new physics of the era by a leading British physicist. Keeping technical references to a bare minimum, Jeans argues that physics has entered a new age in which mathematical representation has supplanted mechanical models. This recording was originally published on Legamus.eu and was later released on LibriVox when US copyright permitted. - Summary by Peter Tucker
