In this fascinating autobiography from the foremost genius of twentieth-century physics, Max Planck tells the story of his life, his aims, and his thinking. Published posthumously, the papers in this volume were written for the general reader and make accessible his scientific theories as well as his philosophical ideals, including his thoughts on ethics and morals. Max (Karl Ernst Ludwig) Planck was a German physicist and philosopher known for his quantum theory, for which he won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1918. Planck was born in Kiel, Germany, in 1858 to an academic family, and he valued education from a young age. He attended the Universities of Munich and Berlin to study physics under the great scientific leaders Kirchhoff and Helmholtz. His early work mainly focused on the study of thermodynamics, and in 1900 he published a paper on his quantum theory that would change the face of modern physics. Planck worked as a professor at Berlin University his entire life, and he also served as the president of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society for the Promotion of Science. During World War II, Planck experienced great hardships while he remained in Germany but openly opposed the Nazi regime. One of his two sons was executed during this time for an unsuccessful attempt on Hitler's life, and Planck's home in Berlin was eventually bombed. He continued to write on physics and philosophy until his death in 1947.

The most complete set of study aids I have ever used!
Format: Paperback
I have never encountered a set of books this well done. Everything in each book is written to help you understand the CompTIA A+ certification. It addresses the topics with a great overview and then specifics. It starts with a test to establish your level of experience. It is written in a way that lends itself to moving around to different topics to keep things fresh. There are online flash cards aplenty! There are also a ton of practice questions both in the books and online. These books increased my confidence, not just because the exams helped me learn that I knew more than I thought, but because I feel confident that I can learn the rest! Thank you for the great job!
