Sir Thomas Browne, Pseudodoxia Epidemica. It must be thoroughly exasperating for a brilliant mathematician and physicist to try to present to laymen a summary of his work and speculation. This is especially true when one is dealing with the mysterious conflicts between quantum and wave mechanics, which have plagued experts in the field. When Schrodinger was professor of mathematical physics at Zurich, he established his theory of wave mechanics, setting forth what is now known as the Schrodinger wave equation, the basis
