Excerpt from The Quantum Theory of Fields
Indeed the introduction of the photon concept meant a revival Of the old dilemma from Newton's and Huygens' days of the corpuscular or undulatory constitution of light, which had seemed resolved in favour Of the latter by the establishment of the electromagnetic theory of radiation. The situation was most peculiar since the very definition of the energy or momentum of the photon, given by the product of Planck's constant and the frequency or wave number of the radiation, directly refers to the characteristics of a wave picture. We were thus confronted with a novel kind of complementary relationship between the applications Of different fundamental concepts Of classical physics, the study of which in the course of time was to make the limited scope of deterministic description evident and to call for an essentially statistical account of even the most elementary atomic processes.
