Most of us are unaware of how much we depend on quantum mechanics on a day-to-day basis. Using illustrations and examples from science fiction pulp magazines and comic books, this book explains the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics that underlie the world we live in.--From publisher description.

"Everything in the universe -- including light, water, air, planets, buildings, animals, and people -- is made of minute particles. Quantum physics is the science of these tiny particles. The discoveries made in quantum physics have been the driving force behind technological advances ranging from cell phones to lasers and medical imaging. Without it, most of the technology we take for granted simply wouldn't exist"--Cover.

"The Hidden Reality" reveals how major developments in different branches of fundamental theoretical physics -- relativistic, quantum, cosmological, unified, computational -- have all led us to consider one or another variety of parallel universe.

"A near-novelistic account that's part quantum science, part biography, and part history, this story of 16th-century polymath Jerome Cardano delivers enjoyment on every level. In a postmodern turn, science writer Brooks inserts himself into the narrative as a sympathetic interviewer and "unreliable narrator," chatting with the 69-year-old Cardano in 1570 in an Inquisition prison."--

"Experimental psychologist Chris Marchuk has developed a flawless technique for identifying the previously undetected psychopaths lurking everywhere in society. But while being cross-examined about his breakthrough in court, Chris is shocked to discover that he has lost his memories of six months of his life from twenty years previously--a dark time during which he himself committed heinous acts. Chris is reunited with Kayla Huron, his forgotten...

Get the Summary of Brian Greene's The Hidden Reality in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. "The Hidden Reality" by Brian Greene explores the concept of parallel universes and the scientific theories that support their existence. The book delves into the evolution of the definition of "universe," which has expanded from everything in existence to the parts we can observe, and now to the idea of multiverses. Greene examines...

This monograph is a multidisciplinary journey to the temporal world of science, technology and society. It is being presented as Advanced Knowledge Management System (AKMS). In its core is a 3D definition of TIME. The AKMS is the scientific foundation for everything, the technological base for any change, and societal base for understanding change, any change. The monograph's journey begins with a thought experiment that solves the longitude problem...

We may have lived knowing that the world around us operates in a way as if we observe them to be. This knowledge of how the universe operates, based primarily of our observations, has enabled us to predict actions and motions and allowed us to build machines and equipments that have made our lives easier and more enjoyable. The field that allowed us to do that is classical physics. The world, however, is advancing and our knowledge of how things are...
