Summary

Quantum theory presents a strange picture of the world, offering no real account of physical properties apart from observation. Neils Bohr felt that this reflected a core truth of nature: "There is no quantum world. There is only an abstract mathematical description." Among the most significant developments since Bohr'¬"s day has been the theorem of John S. Bell. It is important to consider whether Bell'¬"s analysis supports such a denial of microrealism. In this book, we evaluate the situation in terms of an early work of Erwin Schrödinger. Doing so, we see how Bell'¬"s theorem is conceptually related to the Conway and Kochen Free Will theorem and also to all the major anti-realism efforts. It is easy to show that none of these analyses imply the impossibility of objective realism. We find that Schrödinger'¬"s work leads to the derivation of a new series of theoretical proofs and potential experiments, each involving '¬Sentanglement,'¬ the link between particles in some quantum systems..
