Wrong again. Physicists as well.
Yeah, so not mathematicians. So maybe can go try to sell this book on a forum for physicists. I predict limited success, but godspeed.
Has anyone here read Tim Maudlin's New Foundations for Physical Geometry: The Theory of Linear Structures?
Has Maudlin really devised a brand new geometry? What does it accomplish?
I believe he is a philosopher?
Indeed what are Maudlin’s physical principles, postulates, predictions, and equations?

Supposedly he’s coming out with a second book in the series which will make the first book make sense.
Supposedly the book has been delayed.
Wouldn’t be surprised if we never saw it.

We can only hope.

Newton didn't come out with a second book to help Principia make physical sense, but then again, Newton was no Maudlin.
why are we mathematicians so narrow minded?
I think we're just asking the simple question:
What are Tim Maudlin's physical principles, postulates, predictions, and equations? Why should we have to wait for a second book, which may never come out, to find out?
Nothing narrow-minded about asking simple questions. Refusing to answer them is what is narrow-minded.

I don't believe that you are a mathematician.

lol are you accusing me of being a philosopher?
Read the book. This is not a supervised reading group.

What novel idea does the book propose that furthers quantum mechanics?
