Nonlocal Reality

This book explores the limitations of understanding the world solely through local causes, grounded in well-established physics results that challenge the classical view of independent, autonomous objects. It examines how correlations observed in nature defy explanations based on localized interactions, leading to a reevaluation of notions like causality and explanation. Extending beyond physics, the book discusses implications for information, computation, and artificial intelligence, emphasizing the importance of systemic structures over purely local models. Throughout, it relies on established scientific results to consider what kind of world must exist under these fundamental limitations.
