The Wave Function. Essays on the Metaphysics of Quantum Mechanics.
. Ed(S): Albert, David; Ney, Alyssa
Paperback. This is a new volume of original essays on the metaphysics of quantum mechanics. The essays address questions such as: What fundamental metaphysics is best motivated by quantum mechanics? What is the ontological status of the wave function? What is the nature of the fundamental space (or space-time manifold) of quantum mechanics? Editor(s): Albert, David; Ney, Alyssa. Num Pages: 244 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: HPJ; PDA; PHQ. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 236 x 156 x 17. Weight in Grams: 346.

Steven French articulates and defends the bold claim that there are no objects in the world. He draws on metaphysics and philosophy of science to argue for structural realism-the position that we live in a world of structures-and defends a form of eliminativism about objects that sets laws and symmetry principles at the heart of ontology. Num Pages: 416 pages. BIC Classification: HPJ; PDA; PH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 165 x 235 x 29. Weight in Grams: 774.
