The Emergent Multiverse: Quantum Theory According to the Everett Interpretation
Oxford, GB: Oxford University Press (2012)
Abstract
David Wallace argues that we should take quantum theory seriously as an account of what the world is like--which means accepting the idea that the universe is constantly branching into new universes. He presents an accessible but rigorous account of the 'Everett interpretation', the best way to make coherent sense of quantum physicsAuthor's Profile
