Master of Modern Physics : : The Scientific Contributions of H. A. Kramers / / D. ter Haar.
The Dutch scientist Hendrik Kramers (1894-1952) was one of the greatest theoretical physicists of the twentieth century--and one of a mere handful who have made major contributions across the whole field. Physicists know his name from, among other things, the Kramers dispersion theory, the Kramers-H...
