This 1968 volume is a cornerstone of 20th-century physics literature, representing a rare collaboration between two of the most brilliant minds in the field of particle physics: the theorist Tsung-Dao Lee and the "First Lady of Physics," the experimentalist Chien-Shiung Wu. Published by Mir (Peace) as part of the esteemed "Library of Theoretical Physics" series, the book captures the revolutionary period following the mid-1950s discovery that changed our understanding of the universe: the non-conservation of parity in weak interactions.
The monograph systematically outlines the development of the theory of weak interactions, beginning with Fermi's theory of beta decay and progressing toward the more complex symmetries of elementary particles. Tsung-Dao Lee, who shared the 1957 Nobel Prize for theoretical insights into parity, provides the rigorous mathematical framework. Chien-Shiung Wu, whose famous "Wu experiment" with Cobalt-60 provided the definitive physical proof of his theory, contributes the vital experimental perspective.
The Russian edition is especially notable for its scientific pedigree; it was edited by the legendary Soviet physicists A. M. Baldin and L. B. Okun, the latter being the man who actually coined the term "Hadrons." Their commentary situates the work within the context of the Soviet school of physics during the dawn of the Standard Model.
For historians of science, theoretical physicists, and collectors of scientific classics, this book is more than a textbook; it is a primary source of the "Parity Revolution." It stands as a monument to the moment when the symmetry of the laws of nature was proven to be fundamentally broken at the subatomic level.
