While Einstein and Bohr’s generation was widely schooled in philosophy, the push toward specialization after World War II had taken its toll on the liberal arts education of the new crop of physicists. Academic departments had become Balkanized as they had grown in the postwar boom, and physicists, busy with enormous grants and hard-nosed calculations, were generally dismissive of philosophy. So physics trudged along, not wknowing that a major revolution had happened in an adjacent field. And philosophers were, mostly, not surprised by this.
