complementarity

Bohr’s master hypothesis, complementarity, seemed the only way forward.

Bohr called this viewpoint the principle of complementarity, and it successfully guided the pursuit of quantum mechanics during the following decades.

Bohr, by then regarded as the foremost of the world’s atomic physicists, pondered the question deeply and by 1927 arrived at a novel viewpoint he called complementarity.

Notice he said that complementarity is “a root” of family, not “the root.”

This is the core of “complementarity,” and it would not seem to require an international colloquium to explain.

Complementarity as conservative Catholics use the term, however, is more than biology.

Complementarity also means, of course, than men and women are fundamentally different.

They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity.

They are constitutive of non-linear forms of complementarity.

Harmony, or rather "complementarity," is revealed only in the mass, in tendencies rather than in states.
