Today we all take for granted the many technological marvels that have sprung from quantum physics without ever appreciating the radical paradigm shift that led to these discoveries. The story of the physicists who made the quantum leaps that have so altered our world is a provocative and intriguing one. And there is no better person to describe the history of this quantum revolution in terms that everyone can understand than award-winning physicist and science writer Barry Parker.
Parker introduces us to all the major players in this history, offering interesting biographical details...

Following earlier works examining Einstein's theory of relativity and his interests beyond science, Parker (a former professor of physics at Idaho State U.) completes his trilogy by discussing Einstein's contributions to science beyond relativity. Writing for a general audience, he explains how Eins
