Quantum physics is not mystifying. Its implications may be mind-bending, and not yet fully understood, but the theory is illuminating. It is the best explanation of reality we have. And no, God does not play dice with the universe.

Spanning the history of quantum discoveries, from Einstein and Bohr to the present day, this is the essential guide to the most intriguing subject in science. Carroll debunks the myths that have grown up around quantum physics, resurrects and reinstates the Many-Worlds Interpretation, and presents a new path to solving the apparent conflict between quantum mechanics and gravity. A magisterial tour, Something Deeply Hidden encompasses the cosmological and everyday implications of quantum reality. And, finally, it all makes sense.

    Planck suggested that light was emitted in discrete amounts of energy, and Einstein pushed this further by suggesting that light actually came in the form of particle-like quanta
  • Luka Timofeevhas quoted4 years ago
    we should think about the wave function as a way of calculating the probability of seeing a particle in any given position when we look for it.
