This volume provides a broad perspective on the work of state of art in philosophy of physics. As its starting point, it features essays that describe the work and ongoing influence of Itamar Pitowsky. He has been hailed as a gem in the philosophy of physics community and a giant in the field. From this foundation, coverage goes on to offer a deep reflection on key ongoing debates. Readers will not only learn more about work that greatly influenced our understanding of what is characteristically nonclassical about quantum probabilities and quantum logic. They will also discover a definitive, and muti-facted, description of the major open questions in the foundations of physics today. The topics include foundational issues in quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and physical computation. Coverage explores such questions as: Is quantum mechanics a new theory of (contextual) probability? Is the quantum state interpreted objectively or subjectively? Do typicality statements explain thermodynamic behavior? The essays also examine aspects of the physical implementation of computation, such as quantum computation and the limits of computability. The impact of this volume will be beyond the exposition of Pitowsky's influence: it will also be a unique collection containing profound reflections of the field by leading thinkers.
