Quarks, Gluons and Lattices

Michael Creutz
Paperback - $82.95

This book introduces the lattice approach to quantum field theory. The spectacular successes of this technique include compelling evidence that exchange of gauge gluons can confine the quarks within subnuclear matter. The lattice framework enables no ...

Bohmian Mechanics and Quantum Theory : An Appraisal

James T. Cushing
Hardcover - $479.95

This is not a Festschrift in honor of David Bohm or a collection of papers simply stating uncritically a particular interpretation of quantum mechanics. Rather, it is a contribution to the serious and ongoing critical analysis, extension and applicat ...

Quantum Mechanics : Historical Contingency and the Copenhagen Hegemony

James T. Cushing
Paperback - $75.95

Why does one theory "succeed" while another, possibly equally clear and robust, fails? By exploring two observationally equivalent yet conceptually incompatible views of quantum mechanics, James T. Cushing shows how historical contingency can be cruc ...

Theory Construction and Selection in Modern Physics

James T. Cushing
Hardcover - $296.95

One of the major philosophical problems in physical sciences is what criteria should determine how scientific theories are selected and justified in practice and whether, in describing observable physical phenomena, such theories are effectively cons ...

Theory Construction and Selection in Modern Physics : The S Matrix

James T. Cushing
Paperback - $159.95

Analyses what criteria should determine how scientific theories are selected and justified.
