In a series of papers originally published between 1918 and 1922, Bohr elaborates on his correspondence principle, discussing the theory's applications from a uniform point of view and considering the underlying assumptions in relation to ordinary mechanics and electrodynamics. In the first paper Bohr briefly describes the theory's general principles and applies it to periodic systems of one degree of freedom and to some non-periodic systems. In the second he gives a detailed discussion of the theory of the hydrogen spectrum, with the third article explaining the spectra of other elements. This is a reprint of the original publishes 1918-1922 by A. F. host, Copenhagen.
