“I think I can safely say that nobody really understands quantum mechanics,” observed the
physicist and Nobel laureate Richard Feynman. That's not surprising, as far as it goes …

I think it is safe to say that no one understands quantum mechanics. Do not keep saying to
yourself, if you can possibly avoid it,“But how can it be like that?” because you will get “down …

Since Niels Bohr said this many years ago, quantum mechanics has only been getting more
shocking. We now realize that it's not really telling us that “weird” things happen out of sight …

Few revolutions in science have been more far-reaching—but less understood—than the
quantum revolution in physics. Everyday experience cannot prepare us for the sub-atomic …

Quantum mechanics has enjoyed many successes since its formulation in the early 20th
century. It has explained the structure and interactions of atoms, nuclei, and subnuclear …

How to Understand Quantum Mechanics presents an accessible introduction to
understanding quantum mechanics in a natural and intuitive way, which was advocated by …

We still lack any consensus about what one is actually talking about as one uses quantum
mechanics. There is a gap between the abstract terms in which the theory is couched and …
