Mandelstam?s life story is thereby placed in its proper cultural context. The following more general issues are taken under consideration: the impact of German scientific culture on Russian science; the problems and fates of Russian intellectuals during the revolutionary and post-revolutionary years; the formation of the Soviet Academy of Sciences; and transformation of the system of higher education in the USSR during the 1920's and 1930's.The author shows that Mandelstam?s fundamental writings and his lectures notes allow to reconstruct his philosophy of science and his approach to the social and ethical functions of science and science education. That reconstruction is enhanced through extensive use of hitherto unpublished archival material as well as the transcripts of personal interviews conducted by the author. 606 $aPhysics 606 $aOptics 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching 606 $aNature 606 $aEcology 606 $aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P29000 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aScience Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O27000 606 $aPopular Science in Nature and Environment$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q16000 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aOptics. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aNature. 615 0$aEcology. 615 14$aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics. 615 24$aClassical Electrodynamics. 615 24$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aScience Education. 615 24$aPopular Science in Nature and Environment. 676 $a500 676 $a507.1 676 $a530 676 $a530.01 700 $aPechenkin$b Alexander$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0791332 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300369803321 996 $aLeonid Isaakovich Mandelstam$91768707 997 $aUNINA
