Samenvatting
Anatole Abragam is a leading figure in modern physics, whose contributions to the field of nuclear magnetism have won him high distinctions.
Time Reversal is his lively and candid biography. Beginning with early childhood reminiscences of the Russia where he was born and his emigration to Paris in the 1920s, he leads the reader through his war years and spells at Oxford and Harvard, before concentrating on the field of science, about which he is so passionate and still very much a part.
The book is written in an anecdotal style, with many pen-portraits of the author's contemporaries - not all of which are flattering!
