Wrestling with Quantum Theory

The video explores the concept of understanding in physics, emphasizing the need to fit phenomena into broader theories. It questions the nature of understanding Newton's laws and discusses the foundations of quantum mechanics, which has been effective for nearly a century. The video also delves into efforts to derive quantum mechanics from basic principles, such as the inability to transmit information faster than light, and considers the implications of these efforts on our confidence in quantum mechanics as a complete theory.
