quantum physics that have shaped our understanding of modern science.
Featuring topics such as Schrodinger's cat, the wave-particle duality
and the newly emerging theories of quantum gravity, Quantum Physics
provides an essential introduction to this cutting-edge science. It
also presents the personalities behind these discoveries, such as Max
Planck, Neils Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Richard Feynman and many more.

Includes:
• String theory
• Antimatter
• The double-slit experiment
• Supersymmetry


Presented with diagrams, illustrations and simple summary sections at
the end of each chapter, this new fascinating guide demystifies this
crucial subject and makes it accessible to everyone.
