Tim Maudlin's "Philosophy of Physics: Quantum Theory" makes for an excellent read! It addresses tons of questions which are rarely answered (let alone asked) in your run-of-the-mill university-level QM class.

beautiful work. To anyone who is interested in really understanding relativity deeply without intimidating math, I recommend Tim Maudlin's book: "Philosophy of Physics: Space and Time".
