This autobiography by a prominent physicist and distinguished member of the physics community spans 60 years. From the people he knew to the events he witnessed, Frederick Seitz’s book covers key developments in physics since the 1930s and includes many anecdotes and never before published photographs. This book should be of interest to physicists, especially those in condensed matter and crystallography - as well as historians of science.
