Quantum Theory with No Math

About the Book | Errata and Addenda | Details | Amazon

"There are a few books that I always keep near at hand, and constantly come back to. The Feynman Lectures in Physics and Dirac's classic textbook on Quantum Mechanics are among them. Michael Fayer's wonderful new book, Absolutely Small, is about to join them. Whether you are a scientist or just curious about how the world works, this is the book for you."

-Leonard Susskind, Professor of Physics, Stanford University, Author of The Black Hole War: My Battle With Stephen Hawking to Make the World Safe for Quantum Mechanics. Professor Susskind is widely regarded as one of the fathers of string theory.
