Summary of Brian Cox & Jeff Forshaw's The Quantum Universe
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The word quantum is evocative, bewildering, and fascinating. It is a testament to the success of science, but it is also a symbol of the limited scope of human intuition as we struggle with the inescapable strangeness of the subatomic domain.
#2 The world around us is made up of atoms, and the more we understand about the elemental nature of the world, the simpler it seems. The rules of the game are simple, but their consequences are not always easy to calculate.
#3 Quantum theory was precipitated by the discovery of natural phenomena that could not be explained by the scientific paradigms of the time. It was a period of experimental and theoretical innovation that truly deserves to be called a golden age.
#4 The term `quantum' was first used in 1900 by Max Planck to describe the radiation emitted by hot objects. He found that he could only explain the properties of black body radiation if he assumed that light is emitted in little packets of energy.
