Manifesting the Quantum World
by Ulrich Mohrhoff
Publisher: arXiv 2014
Number of pages: 50
Description:
In resisting attempts to explain the unity of a whole in terms of a multiplicity of interacting parts, quantum mechanics calls for an explanatory concept that proceeds in the opposite direction: from unity to multiplicity. It concerns the process by which what Sellars called the Manifest Image of the world comes into being...
