Reviews

""A sparkling and articulate new account of how the quantum revolution changed 20th century science - and, as a further delight, how physics and poetry can speak the same language." -- Chicago Tribune "A little gem of a book on an enormously profound and, in many ways, a mysterious subject...." -- Contemporary Physics Book Review "Lederman and Hill, two very well known physicists, have written in a prose that speaks to the poet in all of us. A delightful and illuminating guide through the mysteries of the quantum world." -Gino Segre, department of physics and astronomy, University of Pennsylvania
