Berlin, December 1900. The respected professor of physics at the Max Planck presents a hypothesis shocking scientific community: the energy is not a continuous magnitude, but is divided into discrete packets. This book tells an extraordinary intellectual adventure begun to establish the triumph of classical physics and ended up passing the decree. For the first time an accurate reconstruction and adhering to the text of the entire theory of Planck's radiation until the discovery of the quantum of action. Updated and complete with regard to the primary and secondary bibliography.
