Introducing Quantum Theory by J. P. McEvoy and Oscar Zarate (1996, ISBN 1-874166-37-4)
This is a "Graphic" book discussing the History and Ideas around Quantum Theory. The text is by J. P. McEvoy and the art work is by Oscar Zarate. The book covers the early part of the 1900's when various European physicists (Einstein, Pauli, Dirac, Schrodinger, Planck, Born, Bohr, De Broglie, Heisenberg, etc.) developed the modern theory of Atomic and sub-Atomic particles and forces.
The book may seem simplistic to some because of the graphics, but I think it does a good job of introducing the reader to the History and Ideas of Quantum Theory.
Purchased from Powell's books 8-26-2004 for $7.50.
