Description:

This book aims to show that the probabilistic formalisms of classical statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics can be unified on the basis of a general contextual probabilistic model, namely, the Vaxjo model.

Review Quotes:

From the reviews:

"In this book the author presents an unorthodox account of quantum probability theory according to which all the latter's key features can be reproduced and brought under a common formalism (known as the 'Växjö model') with classical statistical mechanics by using a formalism based on contextual probability ... . the ideas contained in this book are of potentially very high importance." (Dean Rickles, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 i)
