Description
Scope/Content: In 1977, Bill Harvey, a historian of science at the University of Edinburgh, wrote to Hugh Everett in conjunction to a book he was writing on the history of quantum mechanics. He asks Everett various questions about how he viewed his thesis then, in 1977, as well as to what degree Everett kept up with the literature on foundations of quantum mechanics. Everett answers both questions.
Scope/Content: This document was found in the basement of Mark Everett in 2007 by Mark Everett and Peter Byrne.
