Landmark Lectures by One of the Twentieth Century’s Greatest Physicists

In the 1950s the distinguished theoretical physicist Wolfgang Pauli delivered a landmark series of lectures at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. The professor’s comprehensive coverage of the fundamentals of clas-sical and modern physics was painstakingly recorded not only by his students but also by a number of collaborators, whose carefully edited transcriptions appear in this remarkable six-volume work.
