Quantum physics (quantum mechanics & quantum field theory)

This volume is the most complete collection of John S. Bell's research papers, review articles and lecture notes on the foundations of quantum mechanics. Some of this material has hitherto been difficult to access. The book also appears in a paperback edition, aimed at students and young researchers. This volume should be useful to researchers in the foundations and applications of quantum mechanics.

Reviews for John S Bell On The Foundations Of Quantum Mechanics

'Seattle, Genoa and Prague have etched the centrality of the IMF, the IBRD and the WTO into our consciousness . Unholy Trinity charts the contours and the reach of these global regulatory institutions and how they serve as a fortress for the prevailing neoliberal theory of globalization.' - Michael Watts, Director, Institute of International Studies, University of California 'This is a great book.' - David Harvey, City University of New York
