Description
Quantum physics is the cornerstone of our world. Yet, at the same time, its one of the hardest subjects for ordinary mortals to grasp.
In Why Nobody Understands Quantum Physics, a husband-and-wife team renowned physicist Frank Verstraete and writer Cline Broeckaert demystifies this essential branch of science. Together, they unravel the reasons the universe behaves in its weird ways and just why its so important to understand them.
In this book, you will discover:
- How symmetry governs the universe.
- The untold stories of pioneering women in quantum science.
- How quantum principles power our gadgets and lives.
- The real essence behind quantum puzzles and discoveries.
Part-history and part-popular science, Why Nobody Understands Quantum Physics serves as a bridge between the complex world of quantum physics and the curious mind.
