The problem of scientism has suffered a severe blow. One can see the foundation of our knowledge begin to solidify in a breathtaking way now. With this textbook, modern physics is understood in a fully physical way all the way up to about 1930 (the outlines of general relativity have been understood but not been published ‐‐a full treatment of general relativity is underway).  \nThis third volume in the Physics for Realists series grounds quantum mechanics in commonsense! Quantum mechanics (QM) is perhaps  \nthe most distant subject from our senses, as it deals with the atomic‐level parts of physical things. As such, it has generated some of the most widely known deviations from commonsense, including the idea that things are not anything till we measure them, which caused Erwin Schrödinger to produce the paradox of the cat that is neither dead nor alive to reveal and ridicule such craziness. Through the grounded approach, Dr. Anthony Rizzi leads the student to a deep understanding of the best in modern theory. Each chapter builds on the previous one to a discussion of Bell's EPR experiment that brings out how first principles shed light on this central arena of the foundations of QM. New understanding and insights permeate the book; these arise from years of research thinking from those first principles we get through the senses. Very new subjects, such as the latest ground breaking discoveries (for which Dr. Rizzi and Dr. Pearle are responsible) about that quintessential quantum effect, the Aharonov‐Bohm Effect, are discussed.

The overarching practical theme of the manned mission to Mars initiated in the first two  \nvolumes is thus continued.
