The Interpretation Of Radium And The Structure Of The Atom

by Frederick Soddy

The Interpretation of Radium and the Structure of the Atom is a book written by Frederick Soddy and first published in 1922. The book explores the nature of radioactivity and the structure of the atom, with a particular focus on the element radium. Soddy was a pioneering scientist in the field of radioactivity, and his work on the interpretation of radium was groundbreaking at the time. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part providing an overview of the properties of radium and the second part exploring the structure of the atom. The third part of the book delves into the practical applications of radioactivity, including its use in medicine and industry. Soddy's work was instrumental in the development of nuclear physics, and the book remains an important reference for scientists and students interested in the history of this field. The Interpretation of Radium and the Structure of the Atom is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of science and the development of our understanding of the universe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
