Type: Book N.B.Slight fade mark to base of d/j spine and top right corner front d/j small closed tear.This volume, the first in a series, is intended for theoretical physicists and philosophers of science and is devoted to fundamental issues in the quantum domain. The book presents a number of discussions of experiments, theoretical puzzles and alternative interpretations, and philosophical treatments of the metaphysical foundations of science and the way in which these throw a scientific light on metaphysics. Hence the title, "Experimental Metaphysics", a term coined by Abner Shimony, to whom the book is dedicated.
