Very Good in Very Good jacket. Size: 9x6x1; Full black cloth binding with gilt lettering to spine, white dust jacket, 9-1/2" tall, 229 pp. Fine copy in near fine jacket with very light wear. The philosopher uses quantum physics to elucidate his concept that something can come from nothing. "There is no such thing as scientific induction. The future is not contained in the past. There is indeterminism in physics and in history. There is genuine emergence in biology. Value cannot be reduced to fact. Mind cannot be reduced to matter.
This is one of the best books I have read. It offers a highly illuminating and simple interpretation of quantum theory that dispels the confusion that makes orthodox expositions so mystifying. This is a MUST READ for anyone interested in quantum physics. But it is much more than that. The Metaphysical Epilogue not only provides some insightful historical reflections on the relationship between philosophy and science, it also offers a new indeterministic world view which shows how we can make sense of the world while dispensing with the notion of causality.
