4. The experiments in this podcast were based on Bell's Theorem, and if you're unfamiliar with it, you should check out The Speakable and Unspeakable in Quantum Mechanics, a collection of Bell's essays, which I review here. I also have discussions of The Wave Function and Quantum Sense and Nonsense, the first a philosophical and the second an advanced non-technical account of the same phenomena.
