Ebook: Elegance and enigma: the quantum interviews

"Quantum mechanics is one of mankind's most remarkable intellectual achievements. Stunningly successful and elegant, it challenges our deepest intuitions about the world. In this book, seventeen physicists and philosophers, all deeply concerned with understanding quantum mechanics, reply to Schlosshauer's penetrating questions about the central issues. They grant us an intimate look at their radically different ways of making sense of the theory's strangeness. What is the quantum mechanics about? What is it telling us about nature? Can quantum information or new experiments help lift the fog? And where are we headed next?"--Cover.;First Encounters -- Big Issues -- My Favorite Interpretation -- Quantum States -- Randomness -- Quantum Probabilities -- The Measurement Problem -- Bell's Inequalities -- Quantum Information -- Reconstructions -- The Experiment of My Dreams -- Switching Sides -- Beliefs and Values -- The Role of Philosophy -- Unification -- The Next Big Bang -- Dear Oracle.
