About The Book
"The Concept of Mass in Classical and Modern Physics" by Max Jammer presents a thorough historical and philosophical exploration of the concept of mass. It delves into its evolution from ancient times to modern physics. The book explores pivotal ideas such as the ancient concept of mass, the neoplatonic notion of inertia, the conceptualization of inertial mass, and how mass is understood in contemporary theories, including quantum mechanics and field theory. Jammer's analysis is rigorous yet accessible, making it a valuable resource for graduate students in physics and anyone interested in the conceptual foundations of mass. This work provides a unique and thought-provoking perspective on one of the most fundamental concepts in physics.
