El debate de la teoría cuántica ("The Debate on Quantum Theory") is the Spanish edition of the book by the physicist Franco Selleri, originally published in German as Die Debatte um die Quantentheorie (1983); the Spanish edition was issued by Alianza Editorial.

Overview

The book surveys the long-running debate over the interpretation of quantum mechanics, from the Bohr–Einstein controversy onward. Selleri presents the case for a realist reading of quantum theory, examining hidden-variable theories, the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen argument, and Bell's inequalities, and argues against the completeness of the orthodox Copenhagen interpretation.

About the author
