Causality and Chance in Modern Physics

T. W. B. Kibble

David Bohm 1984 Henley on Thames: Routledge and Kegan Paul xv + 170 pp price £3.95 ISBN 0 7102 0031 5 This is not a new book, nor even in any real sense a new edition. It is a reprint of a book published 25 years ago with a new preface summarising, very briefly, some of the developments during that period.

Quantum Implications: Essays in Honour of David Bohm

John David Barrow

B J Hiley and F David Peat (eds) 1987 London: Routledge and Kegan Paul vii + 455 pp price £25 ISBN 0 7102 0806 5 This weighty volume is a fitting tribute to a gifted and modest physicist, renowned for many things: for key insights in diverse areas of theoretical physics; for the suggestion of penetrating fundamental experiments; for the authorship of influential textbooks that set new standards of depth and clarity of exposition. The intellectual influence of David Bohm can be measured by the impressive line-up of 30 contributors to this volume, including Nobel laureates Feynman, Prigogine and Wilkins.

Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Theory

T. W. B. Kibble

A R Marlow (ed) 1978 New York: Academic x + 372 pp price £14.30 This book contains papers presented at a conference held in New Orleans in June 1977, at which physicists and mathematicians came together to discuss the foundations of quantum mechanics. Some of the very mathematical articles will be of interest only to specialists, but others clearly show a real effort to communicate across the disciplinary barrier.

Schrödinger: Centenary Celebration of a Polymath

Noel Cottingham

C W Kilmister (ed) 1987 Cambridge: Cambridge University Press ix + 253 pp price £30 ISBN 0 521 34017 9 Many of the invited papers presented at a conference held in April 1987 to celebrate the centenary of Erwin Schrödinger's birth are contained in this book. For the most part they deal with scientific issues with which Schrödinger was concerned.

Foundations of Quantum Theory

R. F. Streater

S Wieder New York: Academic Press 1973 pp xv + 399 price $13.95 This book is not really concerned with the foundations of quantum theory, in any mathematical or philosophical sense; rather, it is a textbook at the intermediate level aimed at physics students in their final undergraduate year. One might ask why it was written.

Niels Bohr's Philosophy of Physics

J. S. Bell

D R Murdoch 1987 Cambridge: Cambridge University Press x + 294 pp price £32.50 ISBN 0 521 33320 2 Bohr was sad that philosophers showed so little appreciation of his 'complementarity', but here is a book-length study by a professional philosopher, following closely on another by Henry J Folse. Both authors find great efforts are required to penetrate the 'notorious obscurity' of Bohr's writings, but both admire very much what they then discover.
