Black-body Theory And The Quantum Discontinuity




Black-Body Theory, published by University Of Chicago Press, 1987 , looks at the early development of Quantum Mechanics through the work of Max Planck .

The major thesis of the work is that even after Planck arrived at his quantum treatment of the irreversibility of radiation, he still saw this work as a contribution to classical physics, not as a revolution. It was, Kuhn contends, Albert Einstein who saw the revolutionary potential of this mathematical innovation.
