- Summary:
- This book gives a comprehensive account of Schrdinger's successive interpretations of quantum mechanics, culminating in their final synthesis in the 1950s. Schrdinger's original position in the realism-anti-realism debate is analyzed. His views on the wave-corpuscle issue are contrasted with Bohr's, and his conceptions of the measurement problem are systematically compared with current no-collapse interpretations.
