This book presents quantum theory as a theory based on new
relationships among matter, thought, and experimental technology,
as against those previously found in physics, relationships that
also redefine those between mathematics and physics in quantum
theory. The argument of the book is based on its title concept,
reality without realism (RWR), and in the corresponding view, the
RWR view, of quantum theory. The book considers, from this
perspective, the thinking of Bohr, Heisenberg, Schroedinger, and
Dirac, with the aim of bringing together the philosophy and history
of quantum theory. With quantum theory, the book argues, the
architecture of thought in theoretical physics was radically
changed by the irreducible role of experimental technology in the
constitution of physical phenomena, accordingly, no longer defined
independently by matter alone, as they were in classical physics or
relativity. Or so it appeared. For, quantum theory, the book
further argues, made us realize that experimental technology,
beginning with that of our bodies, irreducibly shapes all physical
phenomena, and thus makes us rethink the relationships among
matter, thought, and technology in all of physics.
