Title Panofsky on Physics, Politics, and Peace : Pief Remembers Author(s) Panofsky, Wolfgang K.H Publication New York, NY, Springer New York, 2007. Description VII, 191 p : online resource Abstract Note Wolfgang K.H. Panofsky is a prominent physicist who has been an active contributor to elementary particle physics, accelerator building, and laboratory administration as well as to international security policy and arms control. This volume is a somewhat unorthodox memoir. In Panofsky???s words: "This volume contains an unsystematic account of my past work; it is not intended to be an autobiography in the conventional meaning of the term. It is not even remotely a scholarly description of the momentous developments in which I was able to participate; rather it is a recital of memorable episodes, borrowing from the compulsory preface of facetious British history: ???History is not what you thought. It is what you can remember.??? " Pief ISBN,Price 9780387697321 Keyword(s) 1. EBOOK 2. EBOOK - SPRINGER 3. Elementary particles (Physics) 4. Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory 5.
