And most people would assume that quantum reality describes a world quite different from ours. In this book, David A. Grandy shows that one can find quantum puzzles, or variations thereof, in the backyard of everyday experience. What disappears in transferring quantum theory to the everyday is the theory's mathematical formalism, but that need not imply a loss of analytic rigor. If quantum reality is truly as elemental and ubiquitous as many thinkers suggest, then alternative or complementary perspectives ought to be possible, and with the proliferation of such perspectives, a more fully rounded understanding of quantum reality and everyday reality might emerge. Everyday Quantum Reality is a step in that direction." 606 $aReality 606 $aLife 606 $aQuantum theory 615 0$aReality. 615 0$aLife. 615 0$aQuantum theory. 676 $a110 686 $a33.23$2bcl 700 $aGrandy$b David$01865851 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974349203321 996 $aEveryday quantum reality$94473071 997 $aUNINA
