Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
«'… what the author accomplishes is remarkable … she manages to introduce the formalism of the theory and to provide a discussion of quantum non locality, quantum contextuality, the reality of the quantum state, and the main interpretations of quantum mechanics, among other topics. In addition, she offers proof of the principal theorems involved. The whole tour does not result in an anodyne summary of well-known things. On the contrary, it incorporates original views and arguments, reflecting the novel perspective of the author on the field.' Albert Solé and Antonio Vassallo, Metascience»
Quantum mechanics is an extraordinarily successful scientific theory. But more than 100 years after it was first introduced, the interpretation of the theory remains controversial. This Element introduces some of the most puzzling questions at the foundations of quantum mechanics and provides an up-to-date and forward-looking survey of the most prominent ways in which physicists and philosophers of physics have attempted to resolve them.
