Probabilities of the Quantum World

This book was first published in 1983 but has been unavailable for a long time. Daniel Semenovich Danin’s book presents a fascinating account of the first three decades of the previous century when the edifice of quantum mechanics was built with the participation of scientists from all over the world. It is not a drab account of the events and theories but “a mixture of ideas and passions, moments of inspiration and despair, joy and sadness….” We hope readers will enjoy this introduction to quantum physics written by one of the finest popular science writers.
