The Quantum Mechanics Conundrum

Interpretation and Foundations

Buch

This comprehensive volume gives a balanced and systematic treatment of both the interpretation and the mathematical-conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics. It is written in a pedagogical style and addresses many thorny problems of fundamental physics.The first aspect concerns Interpretation. The author raises the central problems: formalism, measurement, non-locality, and causality. The main positions on these subjects are presented and critically analysed. The aim is to show that the main schools can converge on a core interpretation.The second aspect concerns Foundations. Here it is shown that the whole theory can be grounded on inform… Mehr
