This volume presents, with some amplification, the notes on the
lectures on nuclear physics given by Enrico Fermi at the University
of Chicago in 1949.
"The compilers of this publication may be warmly congratulated. . .
. The scope of this course is amazing: within 240 pages it ranges
from the general properties of atomic nuclei and nuclear forces to
mesons and cosmic rays, and includes an account of fission and
elementary pile theory. . . . The course addresses itself to
experimenters rather than to specialists in nuclear theory,
although the latter will also greatly profit from its study on
account of the sound emphasis laid everywhere on the experimental
approach to problems. . . . There is a copious supply of
problems."--"Proceedings of the Physical Society "
"Only a relatively few students are privileged to attend Professor
Fermi's brilliant lectures at the University of Chicago; it is
therefore a distinct contribution to the followers of nuclear
science that his lecture material has been systematically organized
in a publication and made available to a much wider
audience."--"Nucelonics "
