With respect to philosophical influences on Bohr's outlook, the contributors analyse prominent similarities between his viewpoint and Kantian ways of thinking, the views of the Danish philosopher Harald H ffding, and themes characteristic of American pragmatism. In recognizing the importance of Bohr's epistemological naturalism they examine his defence of the indispensability of classical concepts from a variety of different perspectives.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis collection shows us that Bohr's interpretation of quantum mechanics, now nearly a century old, still has the power to shed light on a variety of issues that have arisen only since his lifetime, as well as decoherence theory and other non-collapse interpretations. Balancing historical themes with contemporary discussions, \u003ci\u003eNiels Bohr and the Philosophy of Physics\u003c\/i\u003e establishes Bohr's on-going contribution to the philosophy of physics and examines his place in the history of philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJan Faye\u003c\/b\u003e is a philosopher of science at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eHenry Folse\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus at Loyola University New Orleans, USA.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 392\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 18, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52704618021171,"sku":"9781350109032","price":93.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/dndhb3pwY3FEQnB2cmtaNG5KYUhjQT09.webp?v=1763362686","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/niels-bohr-and-the-philosophy-of-physics-twenty-first-century-perspectives-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
