Scope and Contents

From the Series:

The writings of David Anderson, both published and unpublished, are arranged into three subseries: book reviews, articles, and books/studies/thesis. The series comprises largely professional, scientific literature in the form of book reviews and monographs, but some articles concern his work at Oberlin College and as an Episcopal priest. Included are typescripts, notes, data, revisions, and correspondence relating to his 1950 Harvard Ph.D. thesis, various articles and book reviews, letters to the editor, and the monographs The Discovery of the Electron, The Discovery of Nuclear Fission, and Discoveries in Physics. Anderson's published work was occasionally collaborative.
