All atomic particles have a particular "spin," analogous to the earth's rotation
on its axis. The quantum mechanical reality underlying spin is complex and still
poorly understood. Sin-itiro Tomonaga's The Story of Spin remains the most
complete and accessible treatment of spin, and is now available in English
translation. Tomonaga tells the tale of the pioneers of physics and their
difficult journey toward an understanding of the nature of spin and its
relationship to statistics. His clear unfolding of the tale of spin is
invaluable to students of physics, chemistry, and astronomy, and his description
of the historical development of spin will interest historians and philosophers
of science.
