Quantum Mechanics of Minds and Worlds

Auteur: Barrett, Jeffrey A. (Associate Professor of Philosophy, University of California, Irvine)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
Jeffrey Barrett presents the most comprehensive study yet of a problem that has puzzled physicists and philosophers since the 1930s. Quantum mechanics is in one sense the most successful physical theory ever, accurately predicting the behaviour of the basic constituents of matter. But it has an apparent ambiguity or inconsistency at its heart; Barrett gives a careful, clear, and challenging evaluation of attempts to deal with this problem.
