Realism and quantum mechanics
International Studies in the Philosophy of Science 11 (1):53 – 65 (1997)
Abstract
Scientific realism is discussed in a variety of quantum mechanical settings, and defended against rival views on a number of scores. The search for the hidden is the source of much scientific creativity.Links
