Ep. 3 - Alastair Wilson: The Nature of Contingency

In this episode, I spoke with Professor Alastair Wilson about his newly released book, The Nature of Contingency: Quantum Physics as Modal Realism. We spoke about contingency, counterfactuals, the multiple worlds interpretation of quantum physics, free will, and more. This was a true education for me with a great mind and a great writer, and I hope you find this conversation valuable as well.
