The world according to quantum mechanicswhy the laws of physics make perfect sense after all /[electronic resource] :Ulrich Mohrohoff with contributions from Manu Jaiswal. - 2nd ed. - Singapore :World Scientific,c2019. - 1 online resource (xvii, 298 p.) :ill.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 437-454) and index.

"Apart from providing a lucid introduction to the mathematical formalism and conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics, we explain why the laws of physics have the form that they do. In addition, we present a new and unique look at the quantum world, steering clear of two common errors: the error of the ψ-ontologists, who reify a calculational tool; and the error of the anti-realists, for whom physical theories are simply devices for expressing regularities among observations. The new edition of this acclaimed text adds around 200 pages on a variety of topics, such as how the founders sought to make sense of quantum mechanics, Kant's theory of science, QBism, Everettian quantum mechanics, de Broglie–Bohm theory, environmental decoherence, contextuality, nonlocality, and the paradox of subjectivity — the curious fact that the world seems to exist twice, once for us, in our minds, and once by itself, independently of us."--
