Description:
The "weirdness" of quantum behavior is integral to constructing supercomputers the size of a watch, explaining the beginning and end of the universe, and even to understanding human consciousness. In Q Is for Quantum, the brilliant, award-winning scientist John Gribbin takes us on a voyage to this microworld and the people who made the greatest scientific advances of the 20th century. Including entries on cold fusion, the periodic table, quantum computers, the transformation of alchemy into chemistry, and biographies of Albert Einstein, Robert Oppenheimer, Richard Feynman, and Erwin Schrodinger, as well as a "Timelines" section that compares key dates in our understanding of the quantum world alongside corresponding key dates in history, this comprehensive reference conveys the mystery and excitement of the science that is opening the door to the next millennium's technology.
