![]() ![]() Carroll avoids going through all the different interpretations of quantum mechanics in detail, and only provides short summaries. The book is also notable for what it does not contain. ![]() “Something Deeply Hidden” is an enjoyable and easy-to-follow introduction to quantum mechanics that will answer your most pressing questions about many worlds, such as how worlds split, what happens with energy conservation, or whether you should worry about the moral standards of all your copies. It takes something to convince yourself that this is reality, but if you want to be convinced, Carroll’s book is a good starting point. Most remarkably, the many worlds interpretation implies that in every instance you split into many separate you’s, all of which go on to live their own lives. Instead, he argues, if we only take quantum mechanics seriously enough, then “many worlds” are the logical consequence. But with his new book, Sean Carroll wants to convince you that it isn’t weird at all. ![]() Of all the weird ideas that quantum mechanics has to offer, the existence of parallel universes is the weirdest. ![]() Something Deeply Hidden: Quantum Worlds and the Emergence of Spacetime ![]()
