QUANTUM PHYSICS IN MINUTES - GEMMA LAVENDER KAR...

Quantum physics is the most fundamental -- but also the most baffling -- branch of science.
Allowing for dead-and-alive cats  teleportation  antimatter  and parallel universes  as well as
underpinning all of our digital technology  it's as important as it is mind-bending. This clear
and compact book demystifies the strange and beautiful quantum world  and hence the nature of
reality itself.  Contents include: Schrodinger's cat  inside the atom  the particle zoo  the
Higgs boson  Heisenberg's uncertainty principle  God playing dice  relativity  the Big Bang 
dark energy and matter  black holes  the fate of the Universe  the Theory of Everything 
quantum gravity  string theory  the multiverse  instant communication  quantum computing and
cryptography  superconductivity  quantum biology  quantum consciousness  and much more.  
Written as a series of mini essays with 200 simple diagrams to help understanding  there can be
no easier guide to this notoriously confusing subject. At last it's possible for
non-specialists to understand quantum theory and its central role in the birth of the universe
and the very existence of life.
