My most recent book is a kindle one, entitled RUTHERFORD, BOHR, MANCHESTER AND THE ATOMIC NUCLEUS. When I was an undergraduate physics student at the Schuster Laboratory of Manchester University, between 1962-64, I sometimes did very standard physics experiments at the very bench at which Rutherford and his colleagues carried out the experiments on which the Bohr-Rutherford atomic model was based. This recent book is to highlight the fact that in 2011 it will be exactly 100 years ago that Rutherford and his collaborators discovered the nucleus of the atom.
