This phenomena earned the name of Raman scattering and the result of the Raman effect.The Raman effect led to further research in science. Raman spectroscopy was based on this phenomena and then the quantum photon spin. He carried out experiments on the diffraction of light by acoustic waves – named as the acousto-optic effect; spectroscopic behaviour of crystals; etc.His world revolved round science and he viewed the world from that perspective.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This is more of a pamphlet than a book. It certainly is not a biography. My guess is the author wrote this up as a pamphlet for a brief introduction to a renowned physicist.Another drawback is that there are numerous spelling and grammatical errors and the “book” needs editing badly. The one thing going for this item is that some of the explanations of Raman’s work are good.If you want a decent biography of Dr. C. V. Raman I would go with “Raman – A Biography” by Uma Parameswaran.
