the controversy between einstein and Bohr about quantum mechanics is a classic.on the one hand, einstein rejected it because of its unpredictable essence, while Bohr had no trouble accepting the limits imposed by nature on human knowledge, being happy with just a statistical description.time has passed, and quantum mechanics works beyond any reasonable doubt.that possibly means that Bohr's world vision was right and we should abandon einstein's idea of nature working as a deterministic clock's machinery.However, despite the success of the quantum theory, some of its implications still seem absurd, while the world shows a more and more mathematical essence, just as einstein thought. in this paper, einstein's point is defended in the light of the resemblance between mathematics and the natural world.
