Quantum Mechanics: Historical Contingency and the Copenhagen Hegemony (Science & Its Conceptual Foundations)

Quantum Mechanics: Historical Contingency and the Copenhagen Hegemony (Science & Its Conceptual Foundations)

by Cushing (Author)

Synopsis

In examining the role that timing can play in the establishment of theory and explanation, this book argues that the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics was accepted not because it was better than David Bohm's (who supplied an alternative explanation), but because it appeared first.
