The Transactional Interpretation and its Evolution into the 21st Century: An Overview

This essay provides a historical, philosophical, and critical overview of the development of the Transactional Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics (TI). It is separated into two parts. Part I presents the history and development of TI from 1986 up to 2016 (the time of writing). Part II lays out current areas of divergence among researchers in TI.
