Sommerfeld left his mark within the historical past of arithmetic, fluid mechanics, a couple of actual subdisciplines and, particularly, as founding father of a best "school" (Peter Debye, Wolfgang Pauli, Werner Heisenberg, Linus Pauling and Hans Bethe have been his scholars, to call merely the Nobel laureates between them). This biography is to a wide volume in keeping with fundamental resource fabric (correspondence, diaries, unpublished manuscripts). it may be of specific curiosity to scholars who're prepared to understand extra in regards to the historic roots of contemporary technological know-how.

His existence, consequently, illustrates how technological know-how and scientists practice in altering social environments. From this angle, the biography also needs to allure readers with a basic curiosity within the background of technology and technology.
