Dirac in 20th century physics: a centenary assessment

 a,  b
a Department of Experimental Physics, Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia, ul. Miklukho-Maklaya 6, Moscow, 117198, Russian Federation
b Peoples' Friendship University of Russia, ul. Miklukho-Maklaya, 6, Moscow, 117198, Russian Federation

Current views on Dirac’s creative heritage and on his role in the formation and development of quantum physics and in shaping the physical picture of the world are discussed. Dirac’s fundamental ideas in later life (1948-1984) and their current development are given considerable attention.
