In Search of Schrodinger's Cat

This is an awesome introductory book to the wild and wacky world of quantum physics. Gribbin's explanations are clear and cogent, without having to use any mathematics. The only issue now is that it is getting long in the tooth. Not that the Standard Model has been proven incorrect, simply that more nuances have been worked out since it was published.

This is the best introduction to quantum mechanics for the general public. Great gift for everyone that is curious about the mysteries of our world or has a philosophical mind set.

The book in good used condition and it is a brilliant book - very thorough

This was my second read of this book. When I read it the first time, I was too stupid to understand it. I am still too stupid to fully grasp everything but for those who are interested in the nature of the Universe, this is an excellent attempt to "dumb down" the subject for the average (or in my case, the below average) person. The book highlights some of the giants in the field - the big brains and deep thinkers who have given us an accurate model of the Universe and have enabled inventions from GPS to the cell phone. Thankfully, there is no or little math here and no requirement to have a PhD in Physics. And it is not really written for cat lovers.
