In 1919, Max Planck was awarded the reserved Physics Nobel Prize from the year 1918. He was nominated several times for: (i) The radiation law named after him. (ii) Universal constant, better known as Planck constant. (iii) Discovery of the energy quantum. (iv) His book “Lectures on the theory of heat radiation”. Planck was also generous to nominate others. Based on the authentic documents, such as nomination letters, reports of the Nobel Committee and its experts, the book discusses several issues: (i) Was the decision of the Royal Swedish Academy of Science right in rejecting the claim of the nominators until 1918? (ii) Was Planck the founder of the quantum theory, not Albert Einstein? » Weitere Titel von Ra
