Planck made many contributions to theoretical physics, but his fame as a physicist rests primarily on his role as the originator of quantum theory, which revolutionized human understanding of atomic and subatomic processes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eNiels Henrik David Bohr\u003c\/b\u003e was a Danish physicist who made foundational contributions to understanding atomic structure and quantum theory, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922. Bohr was also a philosopher and a promoter of scientific research. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr James Lees\u003c\/b\u003e (introduction) is a Physicist, Author, and Science Communicator who studied at The University of York and Stanford. He works as a researcher and can be found giving talks and workshops across the UK at various educational festivals on a wide variety of scientific topics. He also has several other books including \u003ci\u003ePhysics in 50 Milestone Moments\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWho Knew?
