Quantum theory is one of science's most thrilling, challenging and even
mysterious areas. Scientists such as Planck, Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg
and Schrödinger uncovered bizarre paradoxes in the early 20th century
that seemed to destroy the fundamental assumptions of 'classical
physics' - the basic laws we are taught in school. Notoriously
difficult, quantum theory is nonetheless an amazing and inspiring
intellectual adventure, explained here with patience, wit and clarity.
