Opis

Provides a comprehensive exposition of the transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics and its compatibility with relativity.

Recenzje

'Kastner writes as if she wants the reader to understand what she is saying, not just to be impressed with how smart she must be to understand the material. This is a boon for those who aren't professionals in the field of quantum mechanics. This book provides a sharp description of the interpretation problem within quantum mechanics and a convincing argument that the Relativistic Transactional Interpretation is the correct choice.'
