Meer over het boek

The book delves into the intense debates surrounding quantum mechanics, particularly during its inception and in contemporary discussions. It highlights the significant disagreements among prominent physicists like Max Born, Albert Einstein, and others regarding the nature of atomic systems. Central to the discourse are questions about the independent existence of atomic objects and humanity's ability to comprehend their behavior. The contrasting perspectives of the Copenhagen and Göttingen schools reveal a prevailing pessimism about these fundamental issues in science.
