Hardback. For many physicists quantum theory contains strong conceptual difficulties, while for others the apparent conclusions about the reality of our physical world and the ways in which we discover that reality remain philosophically unacceptable. This book focuses on theoretical and experimental developments in the foundations of quantum physics. Editor(s): Ferrero, Miguel; Merwe, Alwyn van der. Series: Fundamental Theories of Physics. Num Pages: 390 pages, 48 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 22.

Hardback. Many, perhaps most textbooks of quantum mechanics present a Copenhagen, single system angle; fewer present the subject matter as an instrument for treating ensembles, but the two methods have been silently coexisting since the mid-Thirties. This work resolves this dichotomy by examining the mutual relation between single systems and ensembles. Series: Boston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science. Num Pages: 336 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HPJ; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 242 x 167 x 25. Weight in Grams: 650.

Hardback. Is time, even locally, like the real line? Multiple structures of time, implicit in physics, create a consistency problem. This book includes historical details and explains - why the entropy law is inadequate for time asymmetry, and why notions such as time asymmetry (hence causality) may be conceptually inadequate.

Hardback. Deals with the question of whether quantum mechanics can provide a picture of physical reality. This book presents a 'contextual quantum process theory' as a general framework for further interpretation. It outlines several such interpretations, and discusses ensuing problems of completeness and (non)locality. Series: Fundamental Theories of Physics. Num Pages: 297 pages, biography.
