When you insert a straight stick in water, you will surprisedly
find that the stick appears bent. Yet, this is in fact an optical
illusion resulting from the refraction of light. Nature always
hides her secret with attractive veiling. This may also be true for
the motion of objects. Although everything around us appears to
move in a continuous and lawful way, it is in all probability that
their motion is discontinuous and random in reality as the
microscopic phenomena reveal. This book presents a clear exposition
of the intriguing idea of random discontinuous motion and its
implications for quantum theory and relativity. Once you realize
that motion is actually discontinuous and random, you may finally
understand the mysterious quantum world, where an electron can pass
through two slits at the same time. I fully agree with your idea of
discontinuous movement. ---- Antoine Suarez, Center for Quantum
Philosophy, Zurich The idea of using discontinuous motion as a
realist interpretation of quantum mechanics is original. If it can
be made to work, it would add an interesting new ontology to our
stock of quantum mechanical interpretations. ---- Reviewer of
Foundations of Physics Its very existence is at any rate, an
excellent illustration of the extent to which physical data force
us to depart from commonsense ideas when we try to depict reality
"as it really is." ---- Bernard d'Espagnat, University of
Paris-Orsay
