Rules and Meaning in Quantum Mechanics
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-89341-4 (ISBN)
This book pursues an investigation at the intersection of philosophy of physics and philosophy of language, and offers a critical analysis of rival explanations of the semantic facts of quantum mechanics. The author presents new insights, including a reworking of Einstein's incompleteness argument, a fresh take on Bohr's correspondence principle, and several critiques of recent views in the philosophy of quantum logic. The book will be of interest to scholars and students whose philosophical work concerns language, logic, or physics.

He completed his graduate studies at the University of Notre Dame in the U.S.A, where he obtained his PhD in Philosophy in 2011, under the direction of Michael Detlefsen and Don Howard.
