Potentiality, Entanglement and Passion-at-a-Distance is a book for
theoretical physicists and philosophers of modern physics. It
treats a puzzling and provocative aspect of recent quantum physics:
the apparent interaction of certain physical events that cannot
share any causal connection. These are said to be entangled' in
some way, but an explanation remains elusive. Abner Shimony - to
whom the book is dedicated - and others suggest the need to revive
the category of what may be seen as a metaphysical potentiality.
Abner has described these events without actions to link them as
passion at a distance': not active, but passive. The discussions
gathered here are written by a truly remarkable cast of scientists
and philosophers and shed new light on the most profound puzzles of
our times.
