Beyond Quantum

Andrei Khrennikov

"The present wave of interest in quantum foundations is caused by the tremendous development of quantum information science and its applications to quantum computing and quantum communication. Nowadays, this interest has increased even more because it has become clear that some of the difficulties encountered in the realization of quantum information processing (especially creation of quantum computers and designing of new quantum algorithms) are not simply technicalities but have roots at the very fundamental level. To solve such problems, quantum theory has to be reconsidered. The present book is devoted to the analysis of the probabilistic structure of quantum theory and probes the limits of classical probabilistic representation of quantum phenomena."--Page 4 of cover.
