"This book is a real gem ... very easy to digest ... I would recommend this book to philosophers who are coming to this field fresh. The explanations the authors give are well-suited to those coming to the material for the first time and, I think, to those versed in physics and a physics-type style of writing." - Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics 38
"Overall, the book is distinguished by its lively and inspiring representation method. In combination with the wide spectrum of topics covered, these characteristics make this book a recommendable textbook." - German Physics Society Journal
