Greetings…
I am interested in philosophy and while reading about "philosophy of physics" I came across "Quantum Physics" (quantum mechanics to be exact). I need a book (or several books if one can't encompass what I want) that explains the experiments that were conducted on this matter and the scientific facts that were deduced from them on one hand. On the other, (most importantly) I want it to present objectively the different theories/interpretations/models that were constructed to explain the mechanics (like Copenhagen, Bohmian, pilot-wave, multiworld interpretation, etc). I came across different websites and scientific papers that present these interpretations but they contradict one another, so I need the guidance from experts in this forum.
In short, what I need is a book(s) that separates what was established as scientific facts from the interpretations (scientific theories) that were constructed to explain the phenomena, with an adequate and objective presentation to these theories.
Excuse me for this "naïve" request, I am a medical student. And I hope I posted this thread in the right section, for as you can see I am new here.
Thanks in advance.
P.S.: are the Bohmian mechanics, pilot-wave mechanics and stochastic mechanisms the same?
