4.0 out of 5 stars
Boltzmann - lack of self-confidence,
By Howard Schneider (Thornhill, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ludwig Boltzmann: Man, Physicist, Philosopher (Hardcover)
Boltzmann was born in 1844, studied physics at the University of Vienna, received his doctorate in 1866, became Professor at the University of Graz, after Stefan's death in 1893 became Professor at the University of Vienna and remained so until his death in 1906. While on summer vacation at Duino near Trieste, Boltzmann became depressed and committed suicide. It is thought that attacks on his support for the atomic theory contributed to the depression and suicide. While Boltzmann supported the atomic theory of matter, other scientists such as Ernst Mach and Wilhelm Ostwald strongly rejected it.
