Robert Anton Wilson's Schrodinger's Cat trilogy, Universe Next Door, Trick Top Hat, and Homing Pigeons, is the same story told in three universes where different interpretations of quantum mechanics are real. It even has a Glossary of the physics in the back. (Wilson was scornful of the Copenhagen Interpretation: "We don't got to show you no stinkin' realty.")
Wilson was important in getting some of the more subversive views on quantum disseminated. (cf. How the Hippies Saved Physics)
