📁 The Quantum World: Quantum Physics for Everyone

✍ Diane Goldstein; Kenneth W. Ford 📂 Library 📅 2005 🏛 Harvard University Press 🌐 English

The laws governing the very small and the very swift defy common sense and stretch our minds to the limit. Drawing on a deep familiarity with the discoveries of the twentieth century, Ford gives an appealing account of quantum physics that will help the serious reader make sense of a science that

Quantics: Rudiments of Quantum Physics

📁 Quantics: Rudiments of Quantum Physics

✍ Jean-Marc Levy-Leblond, Francoise Balibar 📂 Library 📅 1990 🏛 North Holland 🌐 English

Amongst the numerous texts on the subject, the authors have succeeded in creating a novel approach to the understanding of quantum physics based on four novel features: - deliberate use of qualitative methods and heuristic arguments rather than formal calculations; - permanent reference to c

The Quantum World: Philosophical Debates

📁 The Quantum World: Philosophical Debates on Quantum Physics

✍ Bernard d'Espagnat, Hervé Zwirn (eds.) 📂 Library 📅 2017 🏛 Springer 🌐 English

In this largely nontechnical book, eminent physicists and philosophers address the philosophical impact of recent advances in quantum physics. These are shown to shed new light on profound questions about realism, determinism, causality or locality. The participants contribute in the spirit of an
