The Nature of Quantum Paradoxes: Italian Studies in the Foundations and Philosophy of Modern Physics is a 1988 edited volume (Fundamental Theories of Physics, vol. 28) edited by Gino Tarozzi and Alwyn Van der Merwe, published by Kluwer/Reidel (Springer).

Overview

The book collects the proceedings of a conference held in Cesena, Italy, in April 1985 to mark both the centenary of Niels Bohr's birth and the fiftieth anniversary of the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen paper. It offers a panoramic view of work by Italian physicists and philosophers on the foundations of quantum physics, with contributions on wave–particle duality, complementarity, the EPR paradox, determinism, hidden variables, and the relationship of quantum theory to gravitation.
