The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, volume XLIII, Sixth Series, January-June 1922; London, Taylor ad Francis, 1922. viii, 1144pp, 22 plates (many folding). Bound in red cloth. The corners are a little bumped from the size and shape of the book; there's also a tear in the upper rear joint, and some bumping to the spine top and bottoms; also, there's a bit of a chipped spot about a half-inch across on the spine top. Lastly, there's a library call slip (and that is all) on the front free endpaper. Overall, a nice copy. $250

Since its explanation requires the wave theory of quantum mechanics, it demonstrates the need for physical theories more sophisticated than those of Newtonian physics."--Wiki
