Birkhauser Boston Mathematical Theory of Diffraction Progress in Mathematical Physics 35
Book SynopsisIndeed, his diffraction analysis is a surprisingly rich and complex mix of pure and applied mathematics, and his often-cited diffraction solution is presented only as an application of a much more general set of mathematical results.Trade ReviewFrom the reviews: “This is a very nice book for those interested in the theory of diffraction since it presents, for the first time in English, the strikingly original work of Sommerfeld—which marks a milestone in optical theory—enriched with historical background and technical details. The interest of this book is not only historical but also technical as it presents a surprisingly rich and complex mix of pure and applied mathematics.”(MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS) "This book offers the first publication in English of Sommerfeld’s original work, together with extensive notes by the translators, and it can be recommended to anyone interested in the theory of diffraction. … The translator’s notes (64 pages) are very illuminating for the reader by providing a lot of historical remarks, technical details, and a nice account of previous diffraction analyses of Kirchhoff and Poincaré."

Birkhäuser The Theory of the Top Introduction to the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top v 1
Book Synopsisto the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top.- The kinematics of the top.- to kinetics (statics and impulse theory).- The Euler equations with further development of the kinetics of the top.Trade Review"This book is a translation by Raymond J. Nagem and Guido Sandri of the German original [F. Klein and A. Sommerfeld, Über die Theorie des Kreisels. Heft I, Teubner, Leipzig, 1897; JFM 28.0658.04]. Various editions of this book, which presents fundamental results in the theory of the motion of the top, have appeared in German...This English translation is of great scientific interest and importance. The content and sequence of exposition of this book faithfully follow the original work...The translators' remarks are presented separately and are intended to ensure an accurate account of the historical development of the theory of the top. This translation is of a high scientific caliber and makes one look forward to the translation of the second volume by Nagem and Sandri." —Mathematical Reviews "It is very positive that, by producing the English edition of this book, a large group of contemporary scientists and especially mathematicians can admire and appreciate what a broad understanding mathematicians like Felix Klein, not only of their field but also of physics, had. Very interesting ample notes of the translators (about 50 pages), where also various motions are worked out, physically interpreted and excellently illustrated by numerous figures, and a nice preface by Michael Eckert make this volume even more interesting to read than the German original." —Zentralblatt MATHTable of Contentsto the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top.- The kinematics of the top.- to kinetics (statics and impulse theory).- The Euler equations with further development of the kinetics of the top.
