- Points out an interesting book by Bryce DeWitt on quantum gravity and its interpretation issues
The two volume treatise
But one can replace his interpretation discussion without any loss of substance by a reference to my thermal interpretation, since the latter shares the main reason why DeWitt championed MWI:
In both interpretations, the state of the universe makes sense (a necessary prerequisite of any theory of quantum gravity) , and no other covariant interpretation has this virtue.
