Epilogue

Ruth E. Kastner

In this epilogue, key points of the book are summarized, highlighting the transactional account of the measurement transition and thus TI’s resolution of the measurement problem. Reasons for historical neglect of the Wheeler–Feynman theory and the transactional formulation are discussed. It is noted that certain metaphysical and even cultural preconceptions such as the yang-heavy emphasis of Western thought may have inhibited open consideration of the direct-action theory of fields, which involves the yin element of response/reception/dissolution, just as the same preconceptions inhibited scientific understanding of the active role of the female ovum in reproductive biology.
