The Quantum Universe is the first popular book to give a non-mathematical pictorial account of quantum physics, the foundation of our current understanding of nature. For so long the province of mathematicians and physicists alone, the beauty and significance of quantum mechanics has remained hidden to the nonspecialist. Yet its impact on technology has been enormous. The modern electronics industry with the silicon chip that has revolutionised so many aspects of modern life owes its existence to an understanding of the quantum nature of semiconductors. The text explains exactly what quantum mechanics is in a simple nonmathematical way, and is complemented throughout by many superb colour and black-and-white photographs illustrating the varied facets of quantum phenomena. The Quantum Universe will provide a fascinating and accessible introduction to one of the most important scientific disciplines of the twentieth century. Final-year students at school, general readers with an interest in science, and undergraduates in science subjects will all be able to enjoy and benefit from this novel exposition.

So, the problem is how to simplify the subject matter in such a way that it still holds credibility and not receive scorn from the scientific community.
However, in order to bring quantum physics out of the shadows and into the light, where it deserves to be seen; I think that a book such as this is not only necessary, but should be applauded.
Quantum mechanics has already changed the face of our society further than any other branch of science in the history of the world; the fact that most people are unaware of how this is so bears witness to the fact that something is very wrong with the way it is understood by the large majority of people.
This book is a step in the right direction. ( )
