Books by Enrico Fermi

The lecture notes presented here in facsimile were prepared by the Nobel Prize winner, Enrico Fermi, for students taking his course at the University of Chicago in 1954. This edition includes a set of Fermi's assigned problems as compiled by one of his former students, Robert A. Schluter.

Suitable for physicists and scholars, this title includes descriptions of the then-known particle universe and its nascent conceptual framework that allow readers to glimpse the foundations of the field from the perspective of one of its most distinguished contributors. It also provides an update, detailing advances in quantum field theory.
