Review text

The author makes a critical analysis on some points advocated by \textit{Mario Bunge} on quantum mechanics (QM) [ibid. 12, 445--466 (2003; Zbl 1030.81001)]. He focuses his discussion on the following topics: the wave function collapse and conservation laws, the Copenhagen interpretation of QM, the cat paradox, the quantum Zeno effect and the issues of realism in QM.
