Publisher's Synopsis
The Interpretation of Radium and the Structure of the Atom is a scientific book written by Frederick Soddy in 1922. The book explores the properties of radium, a radioactive element, and its impact on the understanding of atomic structure. Soddy, a British chemist and radiochemist, was one of the pioneers in the study of radioactivity and nuclear chemistry. In this book, he presents his theories on the nature of the atom, including the concept of isotopes, which he first proposed in 1913. Soddy argues that the discovery of radium and other radioactive elements has revolutionized the field of chemistry and physics, leading to a better understanding of the structure of matter and the nature of energy. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both scientists and non-scientists alike. It is considered a landmark in the history of atomic theory and a seminal work in the field of nuclear chemistry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
