Tim Maudlin 
Quantum Non-Locality and Relativity [PDF ebook] 
Metaphysical Intimations of Modern Physics

The third edition of Quantum Non-Locality and Relativity has
been carefully updated to reflect significant
developments, including a new chapter covering important
recent work in the foundations of physics.

* A new edition of the premier philosophical study of
Bell’s Theorem and its implication for the relativistic
account of space and time

* Discusses Roderich Tumiulka’s explicit, relativistic
theory that can reproduce the quantum mechanical violation of
Bell’s inequality.

* Discusses the ‘Free Will Theorem’ of John Conway and Simon
Kochen

* Introduces philosophers to the relevant physics and
demonstrates how philosophical analysis can help inform
physics
