An Introduction to Relativistic Quantum Mechanics
by M. De Sanctis
Publisher: arXiv 2007
Number of pages: 53
Description:
By using the general concepts of special relativity and the requirements of quantum mechanics, Dirac equation is derived and studied. Only elementary knowledge of spin and rotations in quantum mechanics and standard handlings of linear algebra are employed for the development of the present work.

The Cellular Automaton Interpretation of Quantum Mechanicsby Gerard 't Hooft - Springer
This book presents the deterministic view of quantum mechanics developed by Gerard 't Hooft. 't Hooft has revived the old hidden variable ideas, but now in a much more systematic way. Quantum mechanics is viewed as a tool rather than a theory.
