The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics has established the language that is generally used when quantum mechanics is applied. In Parts 1 and 2 and in the first chapter of Part 3, the author describes the main features in the philosophy behind the Copenhagen interpretation. What then follows are his personal views on the basis of this 'Copenhagen philosophy'. Although Pauli has been the author's most important guide, this work only offers a personal interpretation of what Pauli's philosophy implies in these questions.
