Overview

"A thorough, illuminating exploration of the most consequential controversy raging in modern science." —New York Times Book Review Every physicist agrees quantum mechanics is among humanity's finest scientific achievements. But ask what it means, and the result will be a brawl. For a century, most physicists have followed Niels Bohr's solipsistic and poorly reasoned Copenhagen interpretation. Indeed, questioning it has long meant professional ruin, yet some daring physicists, such as John Bell, David Bohm, and Hugh Everett, persisted in seeking the true meaning of quantum mechanics. What Is Real? is the gripping story of this battle of ideas and the courageous scientists who dared to stand up for truth. "An excellent, accessible account." —Wall Street Journal "Splendid. . . . Deeply detailed research, accompanied by charming anecdotes about the scientists." —Washington Post
