Werner Heisnberg was one of a small group who created the science of quantum physics. Aware that the new physics necessitated deep changes in philosophical outlook, he labored to present this important new material to a more general intellectual community. THese essays, which originally appeared under the title Philosophical problems of Nuclear Science, present an illuminating view of the development and significance of quantum theory.  

Quantum field theory, one of the most rapidly developing areas of contemporary physics, is full of problems of great theoretical and philosophical interest. This collection of essays is the first systematic exploration of the nature and implications of quantum field theory. The contributors discuss quantum field theory from a wide variety of standpoints, exploring in detail its mathematical structure and metaphysical and methodological implications.  

The greatest challenge in fundamental physics attempts to reconcile quantum mechanics and general relativity in a theory of “quantum gravity.” The project suggests a profound revision of the notions of space, time and matter. It has become a key topic of debate and collaboration between physicists and philosophers. This volume collects classic and original contributions from leading experts in both fields for a provocative discussion of the issues. It
