What Einstein Had in Mind for Quantum Mechanics
I know a lot more about physics in the modern way of thinking than Einstein did, because he's been dead for a long time. I would much rather ask what ideas some smart 25-year-old graduate student has than ask what ideas Einstein had today. Are there any undergraduate level quantum mechanics textbooks that don't assume the standard textbook or Copenhagen approach? And would this make much of a difference for one just learning the basics of quantum mechanics? I doubt it. Certainly not if you're really looking at undergraduate level quantum Mechanics textbooks that are meant to be pedagogical.
