Does quantum physics refute realism, materialism and determinism?
pp. 139-149
Abstract
It is generally believed that quantum physics refutes realism, materialism, determinism, and perhaps even rationality. These beliefs, central to the so-called Copenhagen interpretation, were held by the very fathers of the new physics, particularly Niels Bohr (1934), Max Born (1953), Werner Heisenberg (1958), and Wolfgang Pauli (1961).
