BOOK

In the last five decades various attempts to formulate theories
of quantum gravity have been made, but none has fully succeeded
in becoming the quantum theory of gravity. One possible
explanation for this failure might be the unresolved fundamental
issues in quantum theory as it stands now. Indeed, most
approaches to quantum gravity adopt standard quantum theory as
their starting point, with the hope that the theory's unresolved
issues will get solved along the way. However, these fundamental
issues may need to be solved before attempting to define a
quantum theory of gravity

The present text adopts this point of view, addressing the
following basic questions: What are the main conceptual issues
in quantum theory? How can these issues be solved within a new
theoretical framework of quantum theory?

A possible way to overcome critical issues in present-day quantum
physics - such as a priori assumptions about space and time that
are not compatible with a theory of quantum gravity, and the
impossibility of talking about systems without reference to an
external observer - is through a reformulation of quantum theory
in terms of a different mathematical framework called topos
theory

This course-tested primer sets out to explain to graduate
students and newcomers to the field alike, the reasons for
choosing topos theory to resolve the above-mentioned issues and
how it brings quantum physics back to looking more like a
"neo-realist" classical physics theory again
