Description:
Could 'Beam me up, Scotty' soon become a reality?
The lines between 'science' and 'science fiction' have become
increasingly blurred. Now, quantum mechanics promises that some of
humanity's wildest dreams may be realized. Serious scientists,
working from Einstein's theories, have been investigating the
phenomenon known as 'entanglement' one of the strangest aspects of
our strange universe.
According to Einstein, quantum mechanics required entanglement, the
idea that subatomic particles could become linked and that a change
to one such particle would instantly be reflected in its
counterpart, even if separated by a universe. Einstein felt that if
quantum theory could produce such bizarre effects, then it had to
be invalid. But new experiments show not only that it does happen,
but that it may lead to unbreakable codes and even teleportation,
perhaps in our lifetimes.
This is a highly accessible yet technically well researched
introduction to the bizarre phenomenon of entanglement and the
scientists who have helped to discover it. The book provides an
excellent introduction to a complex but exciting branch of science
that could have significant implications for our understanding of
the world and the way we live.
* Amir D. Aczel is an internationally known author and speaker who
attracts large crowds
* We have all seen teleportation in science fiction. This book
shows how it could become a reality.
* The first book to explain the theory of entanglement and to make
recent developments in quantum mechanics widely available.
* Gives an insight into the lives and thinking of some of the
leading physici
