Incompleteness, Nonlocality, and Realism: A Prolegomenon to the Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics
Oxford University Press (1987)
Abstract
Aiming to unravel the mystery of quantum mechanics, this book is concerned with questions about action-at-a-distance, holism, and whether quantum mechanics gives a complete account of microphysical reality. With rigorous arguments and clear thinking, the author provides an introduction to the philosophy of physics.Author's Profile
