Written during the wartime years and initially distributed only to his family and trusted friends, the essay describes Heisenberg’s philosophical view of how we understand the natural world and our role within it. In this volume, the essay is introduced by the physicist Helmut Rechenberg and annotated by the science historian Ernst Peter Fischer. The content, particularly within its historical context, will be of great interest to many physicists, philosophers and historians of science.PhysicsQuantum physicsMetaphysicsPhilosophy and scienceHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P29000Quantum Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080Metaphysicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E18000Philosophy of Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34000Physics.Quantum physics.Metaphysics.Philosophy and science.History and Philosophical Foundations of Physics.Quantum Physics.Metaphysics.Philosophy of Science.530.01530.01Heisenberg Wernerauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut28660Kleinknecht Konradedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910373930603321Reality and Its Order2527193UNINA
