Abstract

Quantum mechanics has many fathers. The contributions of some have been lost to its story in part because of political events, the personalities of the fathers, and the overarching Copenhagen Interpretation that highlighted the ideas of Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg. One physicist who made fundamental contributions but who is little acknowledged is Max Born. His mathematical formulations provided much of the basis for the solution as well as the interpretation and completion of Heisenberg's mathematical insight.
