Abstract
AT the thirty-first meeting of the Indian Science Congress, which met in Delhi in January 1944, the Congress president, Prof. S. N. Bose, discussed "The Classical Determinism and the Quantum Theory", showing how "physicists have gained knowledge but lost their faith". This was supplemented in the Section of Mathematics and Statistics by B. M. Sen, president of that Section, in his address entitled "The Fundamental Equations of Quantum Mechanics". It is difficult to do justice to this without mathematical symbols, so the following article will be based mainly on Prof. Bose's more general treatment.
