Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 2005. Pp. xix+488. US$55.00 £32.95 HB By Joseph Berkovitz There are many introductions to quantum mechanics but only a few of them seriously discuss the interpretational problems and aim at non-specialist readers. In this book, GianCarlo Ghirardi aims to spread knowledge of the theory and its interpretation to such read- ers, without giving up anything on the level of conceptual rigour. The book is written in a conversational style, and the author makes a special effort to orient the reader and put things in historical con- text. As Ghirardi notes, the text is not an 
easy read’. But, the pre- sentation is clear, comprehensive and accessible for the most part to those with a high school background in mathematics and who are willing to make the effort of reading it carefully. The result is an impressive, non-technical introduction to quantum mechanics, in terms of both its breadth and rigour. Ghirardi introduces the readers to quantum mechanics by illus- trating the radical implications of one of the most innovative features of quantum
