Quantum Theory: A Very Short Introduction (book)

"Quantum Theory: A Very Short Introduction" explores the fundamental principles of quantum physics, which describe the behavior of particles at tiny scales. It explains how particles can exist in multiple states simultaneously, how observation affects outcomes, and the strange, probabilistic nature of the microscopic world. The book connects these concepts to real-world technologies like semiconductors and quantum computers, emphasizing their profound implications. It balances scientific insight with accessible language, helping readers understand how quantum theory revolutionized physics and challenged classical ideas about reality.
