However, it is difficult to interpret, and philosophical contradictions and counterintuitive results are apparent at a fundamental level. In this book, Laloë presents our current understanding of the theory. The book explores the basic questions and difficulties that arise with the theory of quantum mechanics. It examines the various interpretations that have been proposed, describing and comparing them and discussing their success and difficulties. The book is ideal for researchers in physics and mathematics who want to know more about the problems faced in quantum mechanics but who do not have specialist knowledge in the subject. It will also interest philosophers of science specializing in quantum physics"--$cProvided by publisher 650 4$aQuantum theory 650 4$aScience$xPhilosophy 907 $a.b1439280x$b17-01-21$c19-06-20 912 $a991003820379707536 945 $aLE006 Fondo Polezzo 482$cEx libris Stefano Polezzo$g1$i2006000182119$lle006$og$pE50.61$q-$rl$s- $t0$u0$v0$w0$x0$y.i15949400$z17-01-21 996 $aDo we really understand quantum mechanics$91752560 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale006$b19-06-20$cm$da $e $feng$genk$h0$i0
