Review of Roland Omnès

William Faris

The success and universal applicability of quantum mechanics are now well-established at a level unequaled by any other theory in the history of science. However, serious questions arise when one tries to reconcile quantum theory with the familiar macroscopic world also described by Newtonian mechanics. Our reviewer considers whether or not the approach described in Omnès's book provides a satisfactory resolution.
