About this product
Product Information
A re-issue of the bestselling science classic Quantum theory is so shocking that Einstein could not bring himself to accept it. It is so important that it provides the fundamental underpinning of all modern sciences. Without it, we'd have no computers, no science of molecular biology, no understanding of DNA, no genetic engineering. In Search of Schrodinger's Cat tells the complete story of quantum mechanics, a truth stranger than any fiction. John Gribbin takes us step by step into an even more bizarre and fascinating place, requiring only that we approach it with an open mind. He introduces the scientists who developed quantum theory. He investigates the atom, radiation, time travel, the birth of the universe, super conductors and life itself. And in a world full of its own delights, mysteries and surprises, he searches for Schrodinger's Cat - a search for quantum reality - as he brings every reader to a clear understanding of the most important area of scientific study today - quantum physics. In Search of Schrodinger's Cat is a fascinating and delightful introduction to the strange world of the quantum - an essential element in understanding today's world.Product Identifiers

Shroedinger's Cat Is either dead or alive concept
Quantum theory and quantum mechanics and the scientist theorists who added developments to the subjects are described in a very easy to read way. Along the way various explanations using everyday type items help a novice like me understand the complex evolution of atomic theories. Example - hitting a ball into a mass of other balls on a pool table helps to understand the big bang theory. Schroedinger's cat in a box concept is particularly interesting.

Bought to go in my Great Nephews time capsule
My niece and her partner are preparing a time capsule for their new born son. This book was my ironic contribution. The greatest irony of all being that my great nephew will never fully appreciate the irony until he reads the book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
