Synopsis

Schommers introduces the foundations, mostly from a histori-cal point of view. Eberhard gives an introductory account ofthe Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox and Bell's celebratedinequalities. D'Espagnat discusses realism andseparabilityand concludes that contemporary physics does not lead to adefinite conception of the world. Eberhard shows how a modelconsistent with Bell's theorem can be constructed by ad-mitting faster-than-light action at a distance. Schommersdiscusses the structure ofspace-time and argues that physi-cally real processes do not take place in but are projectedon space-time. Selleri discusses the idea that objectivelyreal quantum waves exist and could in principle be detected.
