Niels Bohr's Complementarity: Its Structure, History, and Intersections with Her

Description: Niels Bohr's Complementarity by Makoto Katsumori Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Through detailed textual and conceptual analysis, and with special attention to the potentially conflicting elements of Bohrs thought, this volumes fresh approach analyzes the relations between realism and antirealism through the prism of complementarity. Publisher Description This book explores the modern physicist Niels Bohrs philosophical thought, specifically his pivotal idea of complementarity, with a focus on the relation between the roles of what he metaphorically calls "spectators" and "actors." It seeks to spell out the structural and historical complexity of the idea of complementarity in terms of different modes of the spectator-actor relation, showing, in particular, that the reorganization of Bohrs thought starting from his 1935 debate with Einstein and his collaborators is characterized by an extension of the dynamic conception of complementarity from non-physical contexts to the very field of quantum theory. Further, linked with this analysis, the book situates Bohrs complementarity in contemporary philosophical context by examining its intersections with post-Heideggerian hermeneutics as well as Derridean deconstruction. Specifically, it points to both the close affinities and the differences between Bohrs idea of the actor-spectator relation and the hermeneutic notion of the relation between "belonging" and "distanciation."
