Abstract

The questions explored in this book include the wave-particle duality, the uncertainty principle, complementarity, the EPR paradox and Bell's theorem, Schrödinger's cat paradox, and the measurement problem. After placing each question in a historical context, the conceptual issue is framed and then explored in terms of recent experiments.
