    In a 1960 review of Heisenberg's book, Bohr's close collaborator Léon Rosenfeld called the term an "ambiguous expression" and suggested it be discarded. [22] However, this did not come to pass, and the term entered widespread use. [16] [19] Bohr's ideas in particular are distinct despite the use of his Copenhagen home in the name of the ...

    The major reference for Bohm's theory today is his book with Basil Hiley, published posthumously. [35] A possible weakness of Bohm's theory is that some (including Einstein, Pauli, and Heisenberg) feel that it looks contrived. [36] (Indeed, Bohm thought this of his original formulation of the theory. [37]) Bohm said he considered his theory to ...
