Niels Bohr and the Quantum Atom is the first book that focuses in
detail on the birth and development of Bohr's atomic theory and
gives a comprehensive picture of it. At the same time it offers new
insight into Bohr's peculiar way of thinking, what Einstein once
called his 'unique instinct and tact'. Contrary to most other
accounts of the Bohr atom, the book presents it in a broader
perspective which includes the reception among other scientists and
the criticism launched against it by scientists of a more
conservative inclination. Moreover, it discusses the theory as Bohr
originally conceived it, namely, as an ambitious theory covering
the structure of atoms as well as molecules. By discussing the
theory in its entirety it becomes possible to understand why it
developed as it did and thereby to use it as an example of the
dynamics of scientific theories.
