I have just finished reading “The conceptual development of quantum mechanics“, by M. Of the great discoveries of all time: why the world needs quantum mechanics. The standard explanation is based on the historical development of quantum mechanics between 1900 and 1930. This essay will discuss some of the implications on quantum mechanics furthermore how this was developed by theorists for instance Planck theory on black body radiation, Einstein theory on the photoelectric effect and Bohr's atom model and many more. One of the challenges of understanding modern physics is that some of the concepts seem quite abstract when you're talking about microscopic objects outside the realm of everyday experience. They are geared towards courses like “introduction to Semiconductor Devices” and “Quantum Mechanics for Engineers”. The concepts of “NCN supported” and “Community Supported” tools are discussed. Barbour states that 'no sharp line can be drawn between the process of observation and what is observed thus conventional concepts inevitably enter our attempts to picture what is going on in atomic world'. I'm thoroughly enjoying relearning the concepts of quantum mechanics in their proper place as part of a developing train of thought. It was given to me by a Physics friend around the 1970s or 80s. Hughes was being creative in introducing his course and I applaud his efforts. During that time there were a series of crises in physics. Having in a small way tried to learn something about quantum mechanics I've found it daunting to wrap my head around its concepts. Part of the middleware was/is developed under an associated National Middleware Initiative (NMI) NSF grant (OCI-0438246) in 2004-2007 and a subsequent Software Development for Cyberinfrastructure (SDCI) NSF grant (OCI-0721680) in 2007-2010. I recommend "The conceptual Development of Quantum Mechanics" by Max Jammer published by McGraw-Hill, if it is still in print.
