Niels Bohr (1885-1962) was a Danish theoretical physicist who helped develop the theory of quantum mechanics. Early in his career he performed work on the structure of atoms that earned him the Nobel Prize in 1922.  Subsequently he helped clarify confusing issues encountered in quantum physics by developing the concept of complementarity.

Bohr embraced the revolutionary insights of quantum mechanics and resisted attempts by critics of quantum mechanics to deny its basic characteristics.  Bohr argued that insights of quantum mechanics should change fundamental features of the scientific view, and even extend beyond science to all of human knowledge.
