What’s the relationship between science and metaphysics? How can the scientist’s cultural background and the daily life inspire his scientific discoveries? Starting from such questions, the author goes on enlightening some of the most controversial aspects of Niels Bohr’s interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. The author plows on, trying to delineate the process of discovering made by the Danish scientist, by means of epistemological analysis and an accurate historiographical reconstruction.
