Into the Impossible With Brian Keating

CHAPTER

Revisiting Realism in Quantum Mechanics

The chapter discusses a new book, 'The Guess at the Riddle', as a follow-up to the well-known 'Physics by Exforming Experience', challenging the idea that quantum mechanics can only offer probabilistic outcomes. It explores the author's aim to reintroduce a realistic account of the subatomic realm and how physics can influence metaphysics, touching on personal anecdotes and historical context. The narrative also reflects on a personal story of academic perseverance and the importance of standing by one's beliefs, drawing inspiration from Galileo's defiance in the face of adversity.
