Abstract

It is demonstrated that the second quantization which is the basis of quantum electrodynamics is introduced without sufficient grounds and even logically inconsistently although it yields extremely accurate predictions that are in excellent agreement with experiment. The physical essence hidden behind the second quantization is discussed as well.
