Quantum theory cannot hurt you

Quantum theory cannot hurt you

If you are interested in the future prospects of the human race it is good to start with at least a modest understanding of the cosmic basics on which life is built and to that end Marcus Chown's book is a good place to start. It is Quantum Theory 101 in language that even us non-academics can comprehend. He has done the hard research yards for us, all we have to do is read and contemplate. A sub title could have been 'Don't sweat the little stuff'. I promise it will not make your head hurt.
Marcus Chown, the bestselling author of What A Wonderful World, explains all with characteristic wit, colour and clarity, from the Big Bang and Einstein's general theory of relativity to probability, gravity and quantum theory. 'Chown discusses special and general relativity, probablity waves, quantum entanglement, gravity and the Big Bang, with humour and beautiful clarity, always searching for the most vivid imagery.
