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 Copenhagen interpretation and dismissed questions about the
reality underlying quantum physics as meaningless. A mishmash of
solipsism and poor reasoning, Copenhagen endured, as Bohr's
students vigorously protected his legacy, and the physics community
favoured practical experiments over philosophical arguments. As a
result, questioning the status quo long meant professional ruin.
And yet, from the 1920s to today, physicists like 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.
