Do bosons tend not to obey Pauli Exclusion Principle?
I would appreciate if someone would send me some material about this question, and answer it as well.

Bosons do not obey the exclusion principle. Only fermions do.
 
A good exercise is to consider a bound state of two fermions forming a boson. Then try to find the solution to the following paradox. While the bosons can be in the same state, the fermions they consist of can't. How is this possible?
