About The Book:
In Quantum Theory: Concepts and Methods, A. Peres offers a comprehensive exploration of the conceptual foundations of quantum theory. While many excellent books teach how to apply quantum theory to compute energy levels, transition rates, and cross-sections, Peres' work focuses on understanding the ontological meaning behind the theory.
This book is not aimed at specialized topics like atomic structure or interactions but addresses the very foundations of quantum theory. It does not delve into philosophy but adopts a pragmatic, instrumentalist approach. The author emphasizes that quantum phenomena do not exist in abstract Hilbert spaces; they are observed and measured in laboratories, challenging readers to think about quantum mechanics in practical terms.
By clarifying the conceptual underpinnings of quantum theory and explaining its mathematical methods, this book provides valuable insights for physicists and researchers interested in the foundational aspects of quantum mechanics.
