The Cornell Physics Department: Recollections and a History of Sorts
Abstract
The late Paul Hartman chronicled in his delightfully unique writing style the growth and development of one of the strongest departments at Cornell. "The Physics Department of Cornell has had a long and illustrious history which is nowhere written down in any complete way. It was suggested that the present writer, now on a part time "retirement" appointment in the Physics Department, with which he has been associated during a period going back forty-five years, put together a history of the department." This is an updating of the 1984 manuscript in 1993.
