There is hardly another principle in physics with more far-reaching consequences than Pauli's exclusion principle. This book explores the principle's origin, its embedding into quantum mechanics, and later experimental validation and analyses the principle's emergence and validation from historical and philosophical viewpoints. The book will interest philosophers, historians and physicists.
