Abstract

We ponder the question whether quantum physics has had any influence on philosophy, and if not, whether it ought to have had any. Answers to these questions are provided, and they turn out to depend on which branch of the tree of philosophy we swing, sweep and sway, and even which twig of the branch we touch when we swing, sweep, sway.
