The Story of Spin
Sin–itiro Tomonaga
All atomic particles have a particular "spin", analagous to the rotation of the Earth about its axis. This mysterious quality has vast practical importance to topics as wide-ranging as the stability of atoms and stars and magnetic resonance imaging. This is an accessible treatment of the subject.
