This text has a general, non-mathematical discussion of common misconceptions around quantum mechanics, followed by a detailed mathematical discussion of how quantum field theory affects Important philosophical problems. It will be a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the foundations and philosophy of quantum mechanics.

David Snoke leads a laboratory at the University of Pittsburgh studying fundamental optical effects. In 2006 he was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society 'for his pioneering work on the experimental and theoretical understanding of dynamical optical processes.' He has published over 180 articles in science and philosophy journals, and five books, including Solid State Physics, (2nd edition published by Cambridge University Press, 2020), Universal Themes of Bose-Einstein Condensation (Cambridge University Press, 2017), and the well known 'green book,' Bose-Einstein Condensation (Cambridge University Press, 1996).
