The stone age, the iron age, the steam and electrical ages all saw
the reach of humankind transformed by new technology. Now we are
living in the quantum age, a revolution in everyday life led by our
understanding of the very, very small. Quantum physics lies at the
heart of every electronic device from smartphones to lasers;
quantum superconductors allow levitating trains and MRI scanners,
while superfast, ultra-secure quantum computers may soon be a
reality. Yet quantum particles such as atoms, electrons and photons
remain mysterious, acting totally unlike the objects we experience
directly. With his trademark clarity and enthusiasm, acclaimed
popular science author Brian Clegg reveals the amazing world of the
quantum that lies all around us.
