Hardback. Num Pages: 220 pages, 56 black & white illustrations, 34 colour illustrations, 25 colour tables, biography. BIC Classification: PDX; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
This book shines bright light into the dim recesses of quantum theory, where the mysteries of entanglement, nonlocality, and wave collapse have motivated some to conjure up multiple universes, and others to adopt a shut up and calculate mentality. After an extensive and accessible introduction to quantum mechanics and its history, the author turns attention to his transactional model. Using a quantum handshake between normal and time-reversed waves, this model provides a clear visual picture explaining the baffling experimental results that flow daily from the quantum physics laboratories of the world. To demonstrate its powerful simplicity, the transactional ... Read more

Reviews for The Quantum Handshake: Entanglement, Nonlocality and Transactions
The book ... is a fundamental work on the transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics, which was proposed by Cramer himself and that provides a different way to look at quantum mechanics. The work is, thus, of major interest for physicists, researchers working on quantum technologies, students learning quantum mechanics as well as researchers working on the foundations of quantum mechanics. ...
