Coherent Quantum Physics : : A Reinterpretation of the Tradition / / Arnold Neumaier.

This book introduces mathematicians, physicists, and philosophers to a new, coherent approach to theory and interpretation of quantum physics, in which classical and quantum thinking live peacefully side by side and jointly fertilize the intuition. The formal, mathematical core of quantum physics is...
