| Summary, etc | The book QED and the Men Who Made It chronicles the creation of quantum electrodynamics through the pioneering work of Richard Feynman, Julian Schwinger, Sin-Itiro Tomonaga, and Freeman Dyson. Blending scientific explanation with historical research, Silvan S. Schweber explores the development of renormalization theory, Feynman diagrams, and the collaborative and competitive relationships that shaped one of the greatest achievements in modern physics. The book is an essential resource for physicists, historians of science, and students of theoretical physics. |
