Book Description
This three-volume set analyzes the intricate logical process through which the quantum theory was developed, and elucidates by what logic the field is governed. It is based on Taketani’s three stage theory, which describes scientific cognition as a process through a series of coiling turns of the phenomenological, substantialistic, and essentialistic stages. Volume I treats the process up to the establishment of Rutherford’s model of the atom; Volume II discusses how atomic phenomena were elucidated by the application of the quantum theory; and Volume III traces the real development of the three-stage logic in accordance with the ideas and expressions in original papers.
