(Original engl.: "No development of modern science has had a more profound impact on human thinking than the advent of quantum theory. Wrenched out of centuries-old thought patterns, physicists of a generation ago found themselves compelled to embrace a new metaphysics. The distress which this reorientation caused continues to the present day. Basically physicists have suffered a severe loss; their hold on reality." Bryce DeWitt and Neill Graham: Resource Letter IQM-1 on the Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. American Journal of Physics 39, 724 (1971), July 1971, hier zitiert nach Gaither's Dictionary of Scientific Quotations, 2nd edition, p. 1911 books.google) (de) |
