Studies in optics par Albert Abraham Michelson
Michelson was the consummate American experimental physicist, an individual in a country and century of individual scholars. For would-be scientists, 'amateur' scientists or 'citizen scientists' working independently, his work and writings provide excellent models.
Readable and inspiring; how attention to detail and ingenuity in experimentation can yield exquisite results and a surprisingly fertile legacy.
