If you accept the Many Worlds Interpretation of QM, then Deutsch's book will indeed seem "amazing". If you don't, though, then much of what Deutsch says is simply wrong, since it depends on that particular interpretation.
- anonymousDan 5y agoIt's been a while since I read it, and I am not a physicist, so I can't remember the details of his arguments to be honest. But it would be interesting yo reread it with your comment in mind, thanks.
- pdonis 5y agoThe key points I see that imply the Many Worlds interpretation are Deutsch's clear position that no "collapse of the wave function" takes place, and his use of terms like "parallel universes".
- GoblinSlayer 5y agoIf you don't accept an idea doesn't mean it's wrong, e.g. Aristotle didn't accept heliocentrism, said it's not supported by observation, indeed observation suggests sun goes around earth, he wasn't even wrong.
