Beyond the Quantum

A Quest for the Origin and Hidden Meaning of Quantum Mechanics

by Antony Valentini ...

Based on decades of research, this book offers a panoramic rethink of quantum physics, with potentially revolutionary implications for cosmology, quantum gravity, and quantum technology. Properly understood, 'pilot-wave theory' provides a deeper foundation for quantum mechanics, while also going beyond it. First proposed in the 1920s by French aristocrat and physicist Louis de Broglie, and revived ... Read more

Quantum Theory at the Crossroads

Reconsidering the 1927 Solvay Conference

by Guido Bacciagaluppi, Antony Valentini ...

The 1927 Solvay conference was perhaps the most important in the history of quantum theory. Contrary to popular belief, questions of interpretation were not settled at this conference. Instead, a range of sharply conflicting views were extensively discussed, including de Broglie's pilot-wave theory (which de Broglie presented for a many-body system), Born and Heisenberg's 'quantum mechanics' ...

Physics Encounters Consciousness

by Bruce Rosenblum, Fred Kuttner ...

In trying to understand the atom, physicists built quantum mechanics, the most successful theory in science and the basis of one-third of our economy. They found, to their embarrassment, that with their theory, physics encounters consciousness.
