This book offers an accessible introduction to the core concepts of quantum physics. It explores how this field clashes with our everyday perceptions of reality, revealing a probabilistic world where future events are not predetermined. It examines the counterintuitive nature of quantum physics, highlighting experimental evidence that challenges classical physics and our understanding of properties and behaviours.
The book illustrates how quantum physics underpins many technologies, from lasers to semiconductors, and introduces emerging quantum technologies, such as unbreakable encryption, ultraprecise sensors, and quantum computers that solve complex problems. It investigates the meaning of quantum entanglement, the significance of quantum nonlocality, and Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, providing a comprehensive overview of this scientific field.
