The Age of Entanglement Summary
|
"An admirable, unexpected book, historically sound and seamlessly constructed, that transports those of us who do not understand quantum mechanics into the lives and thoughts of those who did." -George Dyson, author of Darwin Among the Machines "Louisa Gilder disentangles the story of entanglement with such narrative panache, such poetic verve and such metaphorical precision that for a moment I almost thought I understood quantum mechanics." -Matt Ridley, author of Genome "Louisa Gilder breathes new life into a story of intellectual daring and makes its protagonists come alive. A deep, beautiful, and thoroughly original book." -George Johnson, author of The Ten Most Beautiful Experiments “The Age of Entanglement is a marvelous guide to the endlessly fascinating mystery of quantum mechanics–and to the equally fascinating way some of the world's smartest scientists have wrestled with understanding it.” -Charles C. Mann, author of 1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus “Daring . . . Gilder’s history is rife with curious characters.” -Publishers Weekly “[This] fast-paced history . . . is less simplified than other popular accounts, but those who pay attention will find it highly rewarding. A tour-de-force by a talented young author who makes a difficult subject accessible.” -Kirkus From the Hardcover edition. |
