About the author

Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck was a German theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory, which won him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1918.

Planck made many contributions to theoretical physics, but his fame rests primarily on his role as originator of the quantum theory. This theory revolutionized human understanding of atomic and subatomic processes, just as Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity revolutionized the understanding of space and time. Together they constitute the fundamental theories of 20th-century physics.

Reviews

[Pardis TD · Rating 4 out of 5]

Generally his calculations were pretty accurate for his time, he is a quantum theorist after all.

[Forked Radish · Rating 4 out of 5]

Archaic physics of the latter Dark Ages. Determinism still reins in a fairyland of laws, waves, constants and fields. But at least Maxwell's electromagnetic radiation theory and consequently "the classical theory of interference phenomena" is trashed.

This is Max Planck's speech before the Nobel Committee in 1920 when he was awarded the prize.
