Robert Oppenheimer, two iconic scientists of the twentieth century, belonged to different generations, with the boundary marked by the advent of quantum mechanics. By exploring how these men differed-in their worldview, in their work, and in their day-this book provides powerful insights into the lives of two critical figures and into the scientific culture of their times. 606 $aPhysicists$xIntellectual life$y20th century 606 $aPhysicists$xPsychology 606 $aScience$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPhysicists$xIntellectual life 615 0$aPhysicists$xPsychology. 615 0$aScience$xHistory 676 $a530.0922 700 $aSchweber$b S.
