Atoms is a book written by Jean Perrin and published in 1916. It is a comprehensive study of the structure and behavior of atoms, a topic that was still in its early stages of development at the time. Perrin was a French physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1926 for his work on the Brownian motion of particles, which is discussed in this book. The book covers a range of topics related to atoms, including their properties, the nature of atomic particles, and the ways in which they interact with each other. It also delves into the history of atomic theory, from the ancient Greeks to the modern era, and discusses the work of some of the most influential scientists in the field, such as Dalton, Thomson, and Rutherford. One of the main themes of the book is the concept of the atomic nucleus, which was a relatively new idea at the time. Perrin describes how the nucleus is the central part of the atom, containing most of its mass and positively charged particles, and how it is surrounded by negatively charged electrons. He also discusses the different types of atomic nuclei, such as isotopes and radioactive elements, and their properties. Overall, Atoms is a seminal work in the field of atomic physics, providing a detailed and insightful look at the fundamental building blocks of matter. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and science of atomic theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
