What is Real?: The Unfinished Quest for the Meaning of Quantum Physics Audiobook (Free)

The untold story from the heretical thinkers who dared to question the type of our quantum universeEvery physicist agrees quantum mechanics is among humanity’s finest scientific achievements. But request what this means, and the effect is a brawl. For a century, most physicists possess followed Niels Bohr’s Copenhagen interpretation and dismissed queries about the reality underlying quantum physics as meaningless. A mishmash of solipsism and poor reasoning, Copenhagen endured, as Bohr’s college students vigorously covered his legacy, and the physics community preferred practical experiments over philosophical quarrels. As a result, questioning the position quo long meant professional ruin. Yet, in the 1920s to today, physicists like John Bell, David Bohm, and Hugh Everett persisted in seeking the true indicating of quantum technicians. What Is True? may be the gripping tale of this battle of ideas as well as the courageous scientists who dared to stand up for truth.
