1. Applied Bohmian Mechanics

   From Nanoscale Systems to Cosmology

   Edited by Xavier Oriols Pladevall, Jordi Mompart

   Most textbooks explain quantum mechanics as a story where each step follows naturally from the one preceding it. However, the development of quantum mechanics was exactly the opposite. It was a zigzagging route full of personal disputes where scientists were forced to abandon well-established...
