This 1984 book brings together 48 studies and essays written by
physicists from around the world to mark the 90th birthday of Louis
de Broglie and the 80th birthdays of Paul Dirac and Eugene Wigner.
Publication under one cover of studies based on the discoveries of
scientific personalities as diverse as those to whom this volume is
dedicated serves at least one important purpose: it concretely
reflects the rival pathways in quantum physics at the time of this
book's publication. From one perspective, the papers contrast the
strategies of a champion of the mathematical approach (Wigner) with
those of a thinker who relied on physical intuition (de Broglie).
From another, they compare the views of a defender (Wigner) and and
opponent of the Copenhagen school (de Broglie), as well as those of
an individual who helped to reconstruct the prevailing quantal
paradigm, only later to advocate a return to causality (Dirac).
