Synopsis
As one of the leading expositors and interpreters of modern quantum theory, John Bell is well-known for his discovery of a crucial difference between the predictions of conventional quantum mechanics and the implications of local causality - a concept insisted on by Einstein. This work has played a major role in the development of our current understanding of the profound nature of quantum concepts and of the fundamental limitations they impose on the applicability of the classical ideas of space, time and locality. This book contains all of John Bell's published and unpublished papers on the conceptual and philosophical problems of quantum mechanics.

    The book was damaged in transit since it was shipped in a thin poly mailer, but after reaching out to the seller, their response was fast and more than fair. The original description was accurate, the price was good, and my experience with their customer service after I reported the problem was flawless.

    Shipping was amazingly fast and appreciated. The description said “It has very minimal damage to the cover, including scuff marks, or creasing but no holes or tears. The binding has minimal wear.” but came with open tears and holes along the binding. It is possible this happened in shipping because it came on a poly mailer and the book is heavy. The condition of the rest of the book was as described. I still highly recommend this seller!

    Tracking showed item was at 1 mail facility for 6 days. I contacted Goodwill of the Heartland after 11 days and a full refund was issued within hours. Item arrived that day. I asked for refund to be canceled. Goodwill mailed the item on the day after purchase. Service does not get any better than this.
