PHYSICS WORLD 2018 BOOK OF THE YEAR 'A clear and deeply researched
account of what's known about the quantum laws of nature, and how
to think about what they might really mean' Nature 'I think I can
safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.' Richard
Feynman wrote this in 1965 - the year he was awarded the Nobel
prize in physics for his work on quantum mechanics. Over the past
decade, the enigma of quantum mechanics has come into sharper
focus. We now realise that quantum mechanics is less about
particles and waves, uncertainty and fuzziness, than a theory about
information: about what can be known and how. The quantum world
isn't a different world: it is our world, and if anything deserves
to be called 'weird', it's us. This exhilarating book is about what
quantum maths really means - and what it doesn't mean. 'Gorgeously
lucid...takes us to the edge of contemporary theorizing about the
foundations of quantum mechanics... Easily the best book I've read
on the subject' Washington Post
