Abstract

We propose a framework for temporal quantum theories for the purpose of describing states and observables associated with extended regions of space time quantum mechanically. The proposal is motivated by Isham's history theories. We discuss its relation to Isham's history theories and to standard quantum mechanics. We generalize the Isham-Linden information entropy to the present context.
