Note 32 — Chapter III · DETAILED CONSIDERATION OF VARIOUS CONCEPTS OF PHYSICS (continued 2)

This section was written early in 1926 without access to recent literature. Our attitude toward quantum phenomena has been so much changed since then by the "new" quantum mechanics, that a number of the following statements are superseded as a statement of present opinion. However it has seemed worth while to let the section stand as written, because many of the developments actually taken in the new mechanics follow the lines that it is here urged they ought to take, and in so far afford interesting confirmation of the point of view of this essay.
