In this new edition, Arthur Fine looks at Einstein's philosophy of
science and develops his own views on realism. A new Afterword
discusses the reaction to Fine's own theory. What really led
Einstein . . . to renounce the new quantum order? For those
interested in this question, this book is compulsory
reading.--Harvey R. Brown, American Journal of Physics Fine has
successfully combined a historical account of Einstein's
philosophical views on quantum mechanics and a discussion of some
of the philosophical problems associated with the interpretation of
quantum theory with a discussion of some of the contemporary
questions concerning realism and antirealism. . . . Clear,
thoughtful, [and] well-written.--Allan Franklin, Annals of Science
Attempts, from Einstein's published works and unpublished
correspondence, to piece together a coherent picture of 'Einstein
realism.' Especially illuminating are the letters between Einstein
and fellow realist Schroedinger, as the latter was composing his
famous 'Schroedinger-Cat' paper.--Nick Herbert, New Scientist
Beautifully clear. . . . Fine's analysis is penetrating, his own
results original and important. . . . The book is a splendid
combination of new ways to think about quantum mechanics, about
realism, and about Einstein's views of both.--Nancy Cartwright,
Isis
