DESCRIPTION:
The heart of the book is a new result that shows how to construct all possible "no. This is a book about the interpretation of quantum mechanics, in particular how to resolve the measurement problem introduced by the orthodox interpretation of the theory
In making precise the central problems faced by these interpretations, this analysis will undoubtedly provide a source of inspiration" Mathematical Reviews Clippings . This is a very good book for a philosopher or physicist deeply interested in the subject." American Journal of Physics"This book must be seen as a milestone in the search for a coherent, generally acceptable understanding of the quantum world: there seems to be no other account providing a unified reconstruction and systematic assessment (from a realistic point of view) of all major interpretations of quantum mechanics. Many technical results are described and proved in detail." Nature"Bub's fine book will be a standard reference for many years." Choice"The beauty of the book is its ability to discover a unified point of view that can e
Three Stars Book_Reader Sorry, could not get through it. Too long to get to the point.. "Enlightening book for those interested in QM interpretational issues." according to gengogakusha. This book is an exceptionally well written, scholarly and quite technical discussion of the central issues in the interpretation of quantum mechanics. Bub really knows his stuff and he takes great pains to be very clear. But be forewarned that some of the material is not easy and he does not shy away from technical details where needed, so be prepared . FEYTO said wonderful book, even that it was published 1997. This book explores and comments very important aspects of the fundamentals of quantum mechanics in a very interesting way. I know now why it won the Lakatos award
