Abstract
We shall discuss in this chapter such fundamental questions as the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox and the notion of reality, the orthodox Copenhagen and statistical interpretations of quantum mechanics, Bell’s inequality, the EPR experiments and possible pictures of space-time. The role of a mathematical description in all these problems will be analysed. The main purpose of this analysis is to show that, in fact, many problems which were considered as purely physical questions, are only mathematical ones.
