But in "quantum", kumar brings einstein back to the centre of the quantum debatein , albert einstein suggested that light was a particle, not a wave, defying a century of experimentswhile "quantum" sets the science in the context of the great upheavals of the modern age, kumar's centrepiece is the conflict between einstein and bohr over the nature of reality and the soul of sciencewerner heisenberg's uncertainty principle and erwin schrodinger's famous dead-and-alive cat are similarly strangequantum theory looks at the very building blocks of our world, the particles and processes without which it could not existsee oxfam website for delivery information read more"quantum" is the essential read for anyone fascinated by this complex and thrilling story and by the band of brilliant men at its heartand yet for many years it was equally baffling for scientists themselvesquantum theory is weird'bohr brainwashed a whole generation of physicists into believing that the problem had been solved', lamented the nobel prize-winning physicist murray gell-mannoxfam shop worcester 'this is about gob-smacking science at the far end of reasontake it nice and easy and savour the experience of your mind being blown without recourse to hallucinogens' nicholas lezard, guardian for most people, quantum theory is a byword for mysterious, impenetrable sciencein this magisterial book, manjit kumar gives a dramatic and superbly-written history of this fundamental scientific revolution, and the divisive debate at its coreas niels bohr said, if you weren't shocked by quantum theory, you didn't really understand ityet for 60 years most physicists believed that quantum theory denied the very existence of reality itselfin this tour de force of science history, manjit kumar shows how the golden age of physics ignited the greatest intellectual debate of the twentieth century
