Quantum relativity and the cosmic observer

Patrick A Heelan

pp. 29-37

Abstract

By a critique of the opposing characteristics of general relativity and quantum theory, I want to assess the possibility and form of a quantum relativity, and thereby—through the "observer problem"—to arrive at a view of the scientist as an incarnated or embodied knower, not beyond nature, but naturalized in the material universe. My point of view is that of a philosopher and a physicist, and the manner is more heuristic than technical, although the technical material could be provided if necessary. In my treatment of the quantum theory, I am presupposing that some form of the Copenhagen Interpretation is valid.(1)
