Meeting the Universe Halfway
Quantum Physics and the Entanglement of Matter and Meaning
Book • 2006
Karen Barad's "Meeting the Universe Halfway" offers a unique perspective on quantum mechanics, integrating physics, philosophy, and feminist theory.
Barad challenges traditional notions of objectivity and representation, arguing for a more relational understanding of reality.
She draws on the work of Niels Bohr to develop her concept of agential realism, which emphasizes the active role of the observer in shaping the observed.
The book is known for its innovative approach and its interdisciplinary engagement.
It's a challenging but rewarding read for those interested in the philosophical implications of quantum mechanics.
