Lee Lerner served as a physics advisor for World of Physics and as an author/contributing subject matter expert. He authored articles on a range of topics related to molecular physics, atomic and nuclear physics, thermodynamics, the history of physics, and evolution of scientific thought. A list of his contributions includes articles on the Bohr Model of the Atom, the applications of physics to cryptology and global warming; thermodynamic concepts of chaos and order, measurement of thermal energy, and reversible processes. Articles touching on classical and modern physics include articles on the electromagnetic spectrum, momentum measurement, relativity theory, Feynman diagrams, and cosmology. World of Physics was written for high school, AP, and early undergraduate students as well as anyone interested in gaining a foundation in the essential history and evolution of concepts underpinning physics and the applications of modern physics to science, engineering, computer science, and society. }, editor = {Kimberley A.
