商品描述

The book deals with expounding the nature of Reality as it is understood in contemporary times in Quantum Physics. It also explains the classical Indian theory of Śūnya in its diverse facets. Thereafter it undertakes comparison between the two which is an area of great topical interest. It is a cross-disciplinary study by erudite Indian and western scholars between traditional Indian knowledge system and contemporary researches in Physical sciences. It points out how the theory of 'Śūnyatā has many seminal ideas and theories in common with contemporary Quantum Physics. The learned authors have tried to dissolve the "mysteries" of Quantum Physics and resolved its "weird paradoxes" with the help of theory of Śūnyatā. The issue of non-separability or entanglement has been approached with the help of the Buddhist theory of Pratītyasamutpāda. The paradoxical situation of "wave-particle duality" has been explained with the help of Upaniṣadic theory of complementarity of the two opposites. The measurement problem represented by "Schrodinger's cat" has been dealt with by resorting to two forms of the calculation of probabilities. Some writers have argued for Śūnyatā-like non-essentialist position to understand quantum reality. To make sense of quantum theory some papers provide a happy symbiosis of technical understanding and personal meditative experience by drawing multifarious parallels. This book will be of interest to philosophically inclined physicists and philosophers with interest in quantum mechanics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了當代量子物理學中對現實本質的理解。它還解釋了古典印度理論中的śūnyatā)的多樣面向。隨後,書中對這兩者進行了比較,這是一個極具當前話題性的領域。這是一項由博學的印度和西方學者進行的跨學科研究,探討傳統印度知識體系與當代物理科學研究之間的關係。書中指出,śūnyatā)理論與當代量子物理學有許多重要的共同思想和理論。學者們試圖解開量子物理學的「謎團」,並利用śūnyatā)理論來解決其「奇怪的悖論」。非可分性或糾纏的問題是通過佛教的因緣生起Pratītyasamutpāda)理論來探討的。「波粒二象性」的悖論情況則是通過奧義書的對立互補理論來解釋的。由「薛丁格的貓」所代表的測量問題則是通過兩種概率計算形式來處理的。一些作者主張採取類似śūnyatā)的非本質主義立場來理解量子現實。為了使量子理論更具意義,一些論文提供了技術理解與個人冥想經驗的愉快共生,並進行了多方面的類比。本書將吸引對量子力學感興趣的哲學傾向的物理學家和哲學家。
