About this book

Niels Bohr's Philosophy of Physics by D. R. Murdoch. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780521379274.

Murdoch describes the historical background of the physics from which Bohrs ideas grew; he traces the origins of his idea of complementarity and discusses its meaning and significance. Special emphasis is placed on the contrasting views of Einstein, and the great debate between Bohr and Einstein is thoroughly examined. Bohrs philosophy is revealed as being much more subtle, and more interesting than is generally acknowledged.
