Hi, John,
I assume you realize that I am not Roger. I am glad you are talking with him. It’s his chemistry book I have, by the way. He sold it to me, over my dead body, for a song. I don’t think people should sell their books. Now that you know it’s rogers, shall I bring it to you when we meet … this afternoon…at three … at Ohoris? Nick Nicholas S. Thompson Emeritus Professor of Psychology and Biology Clark University http://home.earthlink.net/~nickthompson/naturaldesigns/ From: Friam [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jon Zingale Sent: Monday, December 03, 2018 10:58 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [FRIAM] two books (perhaps a bit more) Roger, Thanks for the recommendation. Sarah had bought a copy of Pauling's 'Introduction to Quantum Mechanics' and it had sat at my periphery until the other night when I read your post. In one of those few moments of invincible lucidity, I managed to read the first 120 pages, deeply satisfying many of my curiosities. Pauling's exposition was surprisingly clear, though I must mention that he also does not mention the direct connection between Legendre polynomials and spherical harmonics (thanks wiki!). Cheers, Jonathan Zingale
