Excellent- More about Phenomenology and QBism: New Approaches to Quantum Mechanics
This book explores the parallels between Quantum Bayesianism,or QBism,and the phenomenological tradition, emphasizing the role of the subjects' experiences and expectations and rejecting the idea of physical reality as a purely third-person perspective. QBism interprets quantum probabilities as the experiencing agents' personal Bayesian degrees of belief, and the chapters in this volume explore how phenomenology could serve as the philosophical foundation of QBism.

This groundbreaking volume brings together renowned philosophers and physicists to explore the fascinating connections between Quantum Bayesianism, or QBism, and the rich phenomenological tradition. It stands as the first comprehensive work dedicated solely to phenomenology and quantum mechanics, offering a unique perspective on these two fields.
By emphasizing the importance of the subjects' experiences and expectations, and by explicitly rejecting the notion that physical reality can ever be reduced to a purely third-person perspective, QBism reveals several intriguing parallels with phenomenology. At its core, QBism posits that quantum probabilities must be interpreted as the personal Bayesian degrees of belief of the experiencing agents—beliefs about the consequences of their actions on a quantum system.
The chapters in this volume delve into the question of whether and how phenomenology can serve as the philosophical foundation of QBism. This objective is approached from two distinct perspectives: QBists engaging with phenomenology and phenomenologists engaging with QBism. By adopting these approaches, we gain a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics, the world we inhabit, QBism itself, and the phenomenological foundations of quantum mechanics.
Phenomenology and QBism is a vital resource for scholars and graduate students engaged in the fields of philosophy of physics, philosophy of science, quantum mechanics, and phenomenology. It provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary exploration of these complex subjects, fostering a deeper appreciation for the interplay between philosophy and science.
