Silver Medal winner of the 2023 Independent Publisher Book Award

Are you ready to master Quantum Physics fast through just four bizarre discoveries, even if you’ve got zero prior experience or training in the subject?

Then keep reading....

In 1965, the great American physicist Richard Feynman famously proclaimed, “I think I can safely say that nobody understands Quantum Mechanics." Is there any wonder why?

Particles that pop in and out of existence....

Spooky action at a distance that travels faster than light....

Infinite universes and branching realities….

Most people, unfortunately, were never taught how wonderful and spectacular quantum physics really and truly is in school....

And the ones who do receive formal training are overwhelmed with advanced mathematics that only makes sense to a fraction of the population....

In this book, we will break through the confusion and reveal to you the most important ideas of quantum physics, told through the amazing true story of just four bizarre discoveries–many of which were made completely by accident!

In Quantum Physics, Into the Light, you’ll discover:

• How one young physicist accidentally discovered quantum physics with a math trick and changed our entire understanding of light and matter forever.
• The true secret nature of light (get ready to be extremely confused).
• How a playful riddle about a dead cat started as a joke but later smashed our entire interpretation of reality forever.
• How a man you’ve never heard of took us to the brink of a Theory of Everything (and why we’re not there yet).
• And a whole lot more!

So if you’re ready to master quantum physics fast (and in plain English), buy this audiobook now!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Knowing Quantum Physics

This is a step by step a guide that breaks down the complicated concepts of quantum physics. Before I had no idea what it entails until I listened to this book.It is ver informative as the author has done a good job in breaking down the jaw breaking language and terms to easy to understand. I enjoyed learning about the theories with little mastering of the arithmetic.

Significantly Informative!

I wish I had this audiobook while in undergraduate. The concept of physics terrified me and I barley got through the courses. An audiobook such as this would have served as a fantastic resource. The book is simplistic in the description of the subject matter, easy to follow and simply a pleasure to listen to. Highly recommend this audiobook to any aspiring physicist.

Great Quantum Physics Primer

Early on in the book, the author asks. "What is the true nature of the universe?" Anyone who's read Douglas Adams knows the answer to that. 42. All these years later, it turns out the reason why it is 42 is because of quantum physics.
I am not a science major, but I've always been fascinated by physics and curious about quantum physics.
This book provides an easy to understand history lesson on the origins of quantum physics, which is perfect for a beginner like me who is curious and wants to learn more, but doesn't have a science background.
Many probably know the thought experiment known as Schrödinger's cat. (Spoiler alert.) Now I understand what an entangled particle is, and I know that if you have one entangled particle in the box and one outside the box, you can understand what's happening in the box without actually opening it. Cool.
Apparently, I will also now have an easier time understanding the 2nd Dr. Strange movie, once the version of me in this universe gets around to seeing it.
The narrator has a great voice, too.

love love love

Is there anything better than geeking out on quantum information? I think not. This is such a current and relevant topic and is only going to become even more so. This book does an excellent job of describing the history of quantum and related discoveries and I feel smarter now lol. I personally didn't know the difference between dark matter and dark energy (hint: one is WAY more abundant than the other in our universe!). It was also fascinating to learn why it is that radiation is harmful to humans. Lots of great info here, and not over your head like some other books on this subject matter can get. The author keeps things pretty light, as evidenced in one of the humorously titled sections "how to tame an atom bomb".

Quantum Physics Guide for beginners

As an Engineer I loved listening to this Audiobook. It’s a wonderful topic and the recent quantum mechanics discoveries.
In this impressive Audiobook you will discover secrets of quantum physics, it’s history, and wonderful information about quantum mechanics.
By listening to this guide you will enhance your knowledge about important ideas of quantum physics, how it discovered, and much more. Very interesting and recommend it to all physics lovers.

Wow!

That’s an interesting topic. The narrator is great. I will have to listen again and soak up more of the the authors points. I liked the short chapters and easy to reference later. Electrons, cats, and puzzles make the subject more fun.

Important Ideas and Interpretations of Reality

This book tells the extensive history of quantum physics and its storied origins.
The scientific explanations are rich including: Newton’s theories of waves and electro magnetism, Einstein’s ideas of light particles, and the quantum field theory. The known forces of the universe and explanations emerge to form the standard model of quantum physics. The amount of “strange facts” in this book will amaze and they make up what we appreciate as the beauty of the universe. It shows us much about what the nature of the universe is in space, energy, matter and time.

Good book

Great book! Easy to listen to if your a beginner to quarantine theories like me.
