Booknews
This collection of nine essays by leading philosophers of physics offers philosophical perspectives on two of the central elements of modern physics, quantum theory and relativity. Among the topics: the "measurement problem" of quantum theory, the nonlocality of quantum theory, the properties of spatial localization in relativistic quantum theories, the role of group theory, and the problem of time in the search for a theory of quantum gravity.
