Recenzii
A most welcome addition to the physics literature written with extreme care and covering the objective subject matter in a thorough professional and methodical manner.
A book of very high quality presenting a way of modifying quantum mechanics to remove some of its most serious problems (especially the measurement problem).
Pearle is the master of this material and writes with beautiful clarity and well-judged occasional witticisms and side-remarks. His experience as teacher, as well as researcher, shows in the vivid explanations, and the careful and consistent level of detail in the exposition.
Introduction to Dynamical Wave Function Collapse,' by Philip Pearle, offers a comprehensive and meticulous guide to the historical development and current status of dynamical collapse theories-particularly the Continuous Spontaneous Localisation approach originally proposed by the author.
Pearle's book offers both an important historical record and a valuable resource forongoing research on the dynamical collapse programme. Though there are as yet unresolvedquestions about the approach on both the conceptual and the technical sides, Pearle paints a compelling picture of the wide range of applications to which the approach can be applied, and leaves readers with plenty of reasons for optimism about the future of dynamical collapse models.

Notă biografică
Professor Philip Pearle was born and grew up in New York City. He graduated from the Bronx High School of Science in 1953, and then attended MIT. He studied Electrical Engineering and obtained his BS in 1957 and MS in 1958 in a cooperative program with Bell Labs. He then entered the MIT PhD program in Physics in 1959, and graduated in 1963. He taught at Harvard between 1963 and 1966, at Case Institute of Technology from 1966 to 1969 and at Hamilton College from 1969 until 2002.As an undergraduate, he became interested in the foundations of Quantum Theory when taking his junior quantum physics course using David Bohm's textbook. He delved into particle physics at first but then followed a compulsion to delve into Foundations later. He was encouraged to do so at Harvard by Wendell Furry, at Case by Leslie Foldy, and in his first years at Hamilton College by Fred Belinfante and Roger Penrose.
