Philosophical Consequences of Quantum Theory – Reflections on Bell`s Theorem: Studies in Science and the Humanities from the Reilly Center for Science, Technology, and Values

Autor James T. Cushing, Ernan Mcmullin
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 iun 1989
From the beginning, the implications of quantum theory for our most general understanding of the world have been a matter of intense debate. The contributors to this volume wrestle with questions such as how can a clash between the two fundamental theories of modern physics, relativity and quantum theory, be avoided?

Recenzii

"The papers collected here demonstrate how analytic philosophy of science should be done. Quantum mechanics may be mysterious in some of its aspects, but those who wish to peddle mysticism on the basis on quantum theory would do well to stay away from this excellent collection of philosophical essays." —Canadian Philosophical Reviews
 
 

"Prominent philosopher-scientists, from Abner Shimony to Paul Teller, contribute articles . . . detailing presumptions and ambiguities of quantum measurement, written especially for the nonspecialist. Some highlights include Mermin's powerful (and amusing) 'device' to highlight the 'paradox' of quantum correlations, Linda Wessels' thorough catalog of specific implicit 'axioms' of the discussion, and Cushing's prospective overview. Other gems, including some simplified models of Bell's arguments, and a range of ontological frameworks—from realism to 'holism'—make this an urgently recommended work." —Choice
