这是一本杰出的个人和专业编年史，由当今领先的物理学家之一撰写，这是杨陈宁个人选择的论文合集，并补充了他富有洞察力的评论。包括以前未发表或难以找到的作品，本卷包含杨在统计物理，核力和粒子物理的重要论文。其中包括他与李在奇偶不守恒方面的开创性工作，他们因此获得了诺贝尔奖，以及他与米尔斯的工作，这导致了现代规范理论的出现，并为场论的广泛统一提供了令人兴奋的前景。这些评论是专门为本卷而写的，提供了杨作为物理学家发展的迷人描述，以及对20世纪许多重要物理学家的看法。他们追溯了杨的兴趣和思想的发展，从他的研究生时代到现在，展示了他是如何与他的同事一起工作的，以及他们的物理学是如何形成的。在这个独特的集合中，论文和评论构成了一个强有力的个人陈述，揭示了一个伟大物理学家的智力发展和科学探究的本质。
A remarkable personal and professional chronicle by one of today's leading physicists, this is a collection of Chen Ning Yang's personally selected papers supplemented by his insightful commentaries. Including previously unpublished or hard-to-find works, this volume contains Yang's important papers on statistical physics, nuclear forces, and particle physics. Among them are his seminal work with T D Lee on the nonconservation of parity, for which they won the Nobel Prize, and his work with R L Mills, which led to modern gauge theories with their exciting prospects for the broad unification of field theories. The commentaries were written especially for this volume and provide a fascinating account of Yang's development as a physicist as well as a look at many important physicists of the 20th century. They trace the development of Yang's interests and ideas from his graduate school days to the present, showing how he worked with his colleagues and how their physics came into being. Together, the papers and commentaries in this unique collection comprise a powerful personal statement, shedding light on both the intellectual development of a great physicist and on the nature of scientific inquiry.
