The bulk of the present book has not been published previously
though Chapters II and IV are based in part on two earlier papers
of mine: "The Influence of Harald H 1lffding's Philosophy on Niels
Bohr's Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics," which appeared in
Danish Yearbook of Philosophy, 1979, and "The Bohr-H 1lffding
Relationship Reconsidered," published in Studies in History and
Philosophy of Science, 1988. These two papers comple ment each
other, and in order to give the whole issue a more extended
treatment I have sought, in the present volume by drawing on
relevant historical material, to substantiate the claim that H
1lffding was Bohr's mentor. Besides containing a detailed account
of Bohr's philosophy, the book, at the same time, serves the
purpose of making H 1lffding' s ideas and historical significance
better known to a non-Danish readership. During my work on this
book I have consulted the Royal Danish Library; the National
Archive of Denmark and the Niels Bohr Archive, Copenhagen, in
search of relevant material. I am grateful for permission to use
and quote material from these sources. Likewise, I am indebted to
colleagues and friends for commenting upon the manuscript: I am
especially grateful to Professor Henry Folse for our many
discussions during my visit to New Orleans in November-December
1988 and again here in Elsinore in July 1990."
