Introduction: Philosophers Look at Quantum Mechanics -- Part I: Bell’s Theorem and the Debate on Realism. Chapter 1: Inseparable Twins -- Chapter 2: Bell’s Theorem, Realism, and Locality -- Chapter 3: The Universal and the Local in Quantum Theory -- Part II: Ontological Explorations of QM. Chapter 4: The Reality of the Wavefunction: Old Arguments and New -- Chapter 5: Preliminary Considerations on the Emergence of Space and Time -- Chapter 6: Decoherence and Ontology -- Chapter 7: Bohmian Mechanics and its Ontological Commitments -- Chapter 8: The Nomological Interpretation of the Wave Function -- Chapter 9: Scientific Realism Meets the Metaphysics of Quantum Mechanics -- Chapter 10: Structural Realism and the Standard Model -- Part IV: Individuals, Individuation, and QM. Chapter 11: The Problem of Individualism from Greek Thought to Quantum Physics -- Chapter 12: Weyl, Identity, Indiscernibility, Realism -- Part V: Copenhagen Insights Revisited. Chapter 13: What is Really There in the Quantum World? -- Chapter 14: A Foundational Principle for Quantum Mechanics -- Part VI: Calls to Reconceptualize QM. Chapter 15: A Reconstruction of Quantum Mechanics -- Chapter 16: What is orthodox quantum mechanics?.

This edited volume explores the philosophical implications of quantum mechanics. It features papers from venues of the International Ontology Congress (IOC) up to 2016. IOC is a worldwide platform for dialogue and reflection on the interactions between science and philosophy. The collection features philosophers as well as physicists, including David Albert, Harvey Brown, Jeffrey Bub, Otávio Bueno, James Cushing, Steven French, Victor Gomez-Pin, Carl Hoefer, Simon Kochen, Peter Lewis, Tim Maudlin, Peter Mittlestatedt, Roland Omnès, Juha Saatsi, Albert Solé, David Wallace, and Anton Zeilinger. Since the early days of quantum mechanics, philosophers have studied the subject with growing technical skill and fruitfulness. Their efforts have unveiled intellectual bridges between physics and philosophy. These connections have helped fuel the contemporary debate about the scope and limits of realism and understanding in the interpretation of physical theories and scientific theories in general. The philosophical analysis of quantum mechanics is now one of the most sophisticated and productive areas in contemporary philosophy, as the papers in this collection illustrate.
