Reviews... Folse has done Bohr's position an important and much-needed service. It may be hoped that this book will lead to more serious consideration of Bohr's views by professional philosophers. It should certainly be required reading for anyone in philosophy concerned with the interpretation of quantum mechanics... New Scientist

Edition DescriptionReprint
SynopsisPaperback. Of all the developments in twentieth century physics, none has given rise to more heated debates than the changes in our understanding of science precipitated by the quantum revolution''. In this revolution, Niels Bohr's dramatically non-classical theory of the atom proved to be the springboard from which the new atomic physics drew it's momentum. Furthermore, Bohr's contribution was crucial not only because his interpretation of quantum mechanics became the most widely accepted view but also because in his role as educator and spokesman for atomic physics Bohr was very much the patron spirit of the entire quantum revolution. The conceptual framework which he proposed to provide a new viewpoint for understanding the quantum theoretical description of atomic systems became for most of this century the dominant outlook of countless productive experimental and theoretical physicists. He called this new framework complementarity''.
