Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:It is so shocking that Einstein could not bring himself to accept it. It is so important that it provides the fundamental underpinning of all modern sciences. Without it, we'd have no nuclear power or nuclear bombs, no laser, no TV, no computers, no science of molecular biology, no understanding of DNA, no genetic engineering — at all. Now John Gribbin tells the complete story of quantum mechanics, a truth far stranger than any fiction. He takes us step-by-step into an even more bizarre and fascinating place — requiring only that we approach it with an open mind. He introduces the scientists who developed quantum theory. He investigates the atom, radiation, time-travel, the birth of the universe, superconductors, and life itself. And in a world full of its own delights, mysteries and surprises, he searches for Schrodinger's Cat — a search for quantum reality — as he brings every reader to a clear understanding of the most important area of scientific study today — quantum physics. Review:"Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it." Niels Bohr What Our Readers Are SayingAdd a comment for a chance to win!
