Item Einstein's dice and Schrödinger's cat : how two great minds battled quantum randomness to create a unified theory of physics(Basic Book, 2016) Paul HalpernPhysicist Paul Halpern tells the little-known story of how Einstein and Schrödinger searched, first as collaborators and then as competitors, for a theory that transcended quantum weirdness. This story of their quest, which ultimately failed, provides readers with new insights into the history of physics and the lives and work of two scientists whose obsessions drove its progress.--Publisher's descriptionItem Fundamentals of plasma physics(Cambridge University Press, 2006) Paul Murray BellanThis rigorous explanation of plasmas is relevant to diverse plasma applications. More thorough than previous texts, it exploits new powerful techniques to develop deeper insights into plasma behavior. Written for advanced students, it explores a host of essential and advanced topics while emphasizing the fundamentals that apply to all plasmas
