The book originated in a series of lectures given at Liverpool in
2013 to a group that included postgraduate and undergraduate
students and staff of the Physics Department. They followed from
two very successful lectures given to the undergraduate Physical
Society. It seemed that there was a very large interest among the
students in investigating the foundations of physics in a way that
was never done in physics courses, and was not available in books
or other outlets. However, the idea was to create a framework in
which students (and interested staff) could develop their own
thinking relative to the ideas in the lectures. So it was important
to create both conceptual and mathematical structures on the issues
that are important at this level. The book has the right sort of
technical content to allow for this development, but doesn't lose
itself in excessive details. The ideal use for this book would be
on postgraduate courses where students would be encouraged to think
about the foundations in a way that is well beyond the superficial.
However, a course on aspects of this material would also be
valuable at the undergraduate level, where students could be
stimulated into believing that creative thinking could solve the
problems that emerge when we confront foundational problems.
