The Quantum Revolution in Philosophy
Oxford, GB: Oxford University Press (2017)
Abstract
Quantum theory launched a revolution in physics. But we have yet to understand the revolution's significance for philosophy. Richard Healey opens a path to such understanding. The first part of this book offers a self-contained but opinionated introduction to quantum theory. The second part assesses the theory's philosophical significance.Author's Profile
