Beyond the quantum / editors, Theo M. Nieuwenhuizen [and others].

Already Einstein could never see quantum mechanics as a complete theory. Nowadays, many researchers, including 't Hooft, view quantum mechanics as a statistical description of some underlying reality. The workshop "Beyond the Quantum", organized in Spring 2006 at the Lorentz Center in...
