Résumé

Although there are many textbooks that deal with the formal apparatus of quantum mechanics and its application to standard problems, none take into account the developments in the foundations of the subject which have taken place in the last few decades. There are specialized treatises on various aspects of the foundations of quantum mechanics, but none that integrate those topics with the standard material. This invaluable book aims to remove that unfortunate dichotomy, which has divorced the practical aspects of the subject from the interpretation and broader implications of the theory. The book is intended primarily as a graduate level textbook, but it will also be of interest to physicists and philosophers who study the foundations of quantum mechanics. Parts of it could be used by senior undergraduates too.
