Letter: Meeting Heisenberg and reconsidering Schrödinger (2)

Published 7 May 2025

From James Edmondson, Ilchester, Somerset, UK

 

I have always loved Carlo Rovelli’s brilliant writing. Doesn’t his book The Order of Time move you to tears in the final chapter? And his history of quantum theory was illuminating, but Erwin Schrödinger might be turning in his grave as a result. However, I suspect if we flipped up the lid and looked inside, maybe he wouldn’t be.
