Description
Reality isn't mysterious or dependent on human measurement, but predictable and independent of us. According to Adam Forrest Kay, the received wisdom in quantum physics is that, at the deepest levels of reality, there are no actual causes for atomic events. This idea has led to a profound shift in our understanding of the world.
Kay takes up Einstein's torch, arguing that pilot wave theory, a long-overlooked quantum theory, may hold the key to a new understanding of nature. Groundbreaking research with tiny drops of oil has revealed that these droplets behave as particles do in pilot wave theory, displaying quantum behaviour while being described by classical physics. This discovery has significant implications for our understanding of the universe.
Escape from Shadow Physics offers a fresh perspective on the nature of reality, one that challenges the dominant views of quantum physics. Kay's work has the potential to replace a century of mystical thinking and learned helplessness with a rational understanding of nature.
