Coles How to Understand Quantum Mechanics: 100 Years of Ongoing Interpretation at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
This book offers a number of different ways of understanding the meaning of Quantum Mechanics (QM). QM triggers our wonder about the quantum world and when philosophizing about it, three questions come up: 1) What is the relation between theory and reality? 2) What kinds of things are there in the world described by QM? 3) What can we know about nature at the quantum level? QM makes enormously precise predictions, which so far have proved correct in all tests. Yet, there are deep and multifaceted disagreements about its interpretation. This shows that there is a conflict between our everyday worldview and some fundamental features of quantum theory. This book helps philosophers of science debate what kinds of things there must be, if quantum theory is correct, and how we obtain knowledge about them.
