De Broglie-Bohm theory and related studies
P. Holland, The Quantum Theory of Motion:
An Account of the de Broglie-Bohm Causal Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics,
618 pp. (Cambridge University Press, 1993, reprinted 1995, 1997, 2000, 2004,
Chinese edition 2000) ISBN 0 52148543 6.
The book was digitally reprinted in 2004 so
is in print for eternity, according to the publisher. It can be purchased here
or here
(UK) and here
(US) (where there are some reviews).

a description of a ÔsupernonlocalÕ theory, i.e., a theory more nonlocal than
quantum theory yet compatible with quantal predictions (originally presented in
