Niels Bohr ranks with Einstein among the physicists of the 20th
century. He rose to this status through his invention of the
quantum theory of the atom and his leadership in its defense and
development. He also ranks with Einstein in his humanism and his
sense of responsibility to his science and the society that enabled
him to create it. Our book presents unpublished excerpts from
extensive correspondence between Bohr and his immediate family, and
uses it to describe and analyze the psychological and cultural
background to his invention. The book also contains a reprinting of
the three papers of 1913 - the Trilogy- in which Bohr worked out
the provisional basis of a quantum theory of the atom.
