Optics in the Age of Euler: Conceptions of the Nature of Light, 1700–1795
Hakfoort, Casper (University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands)
What is light? Is it a particle or a wave? This book studies the eighteenth-century origins and early phases of this key debate in optics. This is a revised 1995 translation of a book published in Dutch in 1986. Research, both from the author and by others, has been taken into account.
