DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Jeremy Butterfield&rsquo\;s The Multiverse</strong>&nbsp\;is an introduction to the idea that our universe is just one of many universes. He presents and assesses three versions of the idea of the multiverse: one from philosophy and two from physics. He explores: the ideas of logically possible worlds\, the branches of the quantum state (in the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics)\, and the bubbles of inflationary cosmology. For each idea\, he selects one philosophical question to explore in depth. They are\, respectively: what is a possible world\, what is chance\, and what is explanation?</p>\n<p><strong>On Sep 16 2026\, 18.00 CEST\,</strong> we'll host a virtual book launch in which <strong>Jeremy Butterfield</strong> will present his book in conversation with Al <strong>Wilson</strong> (Leeds) and Richard <strong>Dawid</strong> (Stockholm). The event will be chaired by Helen Beebee (Leeds) and David Teira (Madrid)\, from BSPS Open\, the diamond open access collection publishing the book in partnership with Calgary UP.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>The book can be freely downloaded here:&nbsp\;</strong></p>\n<p>https://ucalgary.scholaris.ca/items/fd41bdc8-3ef9-4225-9aa5-32fe70f8fece</p>\n<p>Or you can buy a printed copy: https://press.ucalgary.ca/books/9781773856964/</p>
