Physics (quantum mechanics & quantum field theory)

Paperback. An account of the philosophical foundations of quantum theory. Hughes analyzes the Hilbert-space models used in quantum theory and explains why they are so successful. He goes on to show how the very suitability of Hilbert spaces for modelling the quantum world gives rise to problems. Num Pages: 384 pages, 71 line illustrations. BIC Classification: PDA; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 25. Weight in Grams: 442.
