Krátky popis
Are we ready for the universe to start making sense?Since the dawn
of quantum mechanics, scientists have insisted that what happens at
the smallest scales of reality is impossible to describe. 'When it
comes to atoms,' Niels Bohr once wrote, 'language can only be used
as in poetry.' Adam Forrest Kay disagrees. Escape from Shadow
Physics is his fiery rebuke to Bohr's mentality and his theory,
arguing that legendarily mind-bending quantum phenomena have
explanations that are as intuitive and natural as any other part of
science.Thanks to Kay's cutting-edge work at MIT, a genuine
understanding of the quantum world seems just around the
corner.Through bouncing droplets of oil, his team has observed
quantum mechanical behaviour emerging on a macroscopic scale - a
startling result which suggests that quantum and classical physics
are not as irreconcilable as we have been led to think.What if the
original doubters of our quantum orthodoxy (not least Einstein
himself) were onto something? In that case, our whole story of
twentieth-century physics is inverted, heroes and villains trading
places, and we must give up the learned helplessness of thinking
that reality is simply too weird to grasp. Weird it may still be,
but true understanding seems within our reach once again.
