Herbert Frohlicha physicist ahead of his time /[electronic resource] :by G.J. Hyland. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2015. - xxi, 263 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Springer biographies. - Springer biographies..

Chronology -- Prologue -- Early life in Germany -- Moving on - the years of exile -- Life in Bristol -- The Liverpool years - the first Professor of Theoretical Physics -- The Liverpool years - from Professor to Professor Emeritus -- Epilogue.

This biography provides a stimulating and coherent blend of scientific and personal narratives describing the many achievements of the theoretical physicist Herbert Frohlich. For more than half a century, Frohlich was an internationally renowned and much respected figure who exerted a decisive influence, often as a 'man ahead of his time', in fields as diverse as meson theory and biology. Although best known for his contributions to the theory of dielectrics and superconductivity, he worked in many other fields, his most important legacy being the pioneering introduction quantum field-theoretical methods into condensed matter physics in 1952, which revolutionised the subsequent development of the subject. Gerard Hyland has written an absorbing and informative account, in which Herbert Frohlich's magnetic personality shines through.
