Entanglement. Il più grande mistero della fisica

A decent book on Entanglement. Suffers from my pet peeve in popular science books -- which is repeating lots of material you have read over and over again. You would think that someone coming to a book on Entanglement would have read a few other accounts of quantum mechanics before and doesn't need

the world of the fast and the small is strange indeed and only a handful of scientific greats have really been able to delve down deep into what it all might mean. in the first half of the book, Aczel introduces the reader to them: Planck, Bohr, Schrödinger, de Broglie - the personalities behind the Leggi tutto

I think more than a few entangled photons whooooshed right over my head while reading this book. Still I was spellbound with what I did understand. I loved learning about all the physicists that contributed to quantum theory and the experiments they designed and performed. I had some trouble followi Leggi tutto

A nice layman's guide following the study of entanglement . The authors obit. Died last month. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/08/sci...

I love that this book walks you through the history leading up to the theory of quantum entanglement, it’s very cool to learn how physics has progressed over time. I also like how accessible the material is even for someone who has no/little background in physics

I first came across the bizarre quantum phenomenon known as "Entanglement" while reading a book called The Large, the Small and the Human Mind by Roger Penrose, then I lost it at some point. In desperation I started to search other resources and found this book called ENTANGLEMENT: The Greatest Myst Leggi tutto

The story of physics from the beginning of Quantum physics to pretty close to the present day. Whatever the future of physics looks like, it's going to involve the insights so carefully described in this book. Some of it went over my head, and I suspect some of it goes over everyone's head - this st Leggi tutto
