"Anybody
who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it." Niels
Bohr's dictum bears witness to the bewildering impact of quantum theory,
which has flown in the face of classical physics, dramatically transformed
scientists' outlook on our relationship with the material world, and
generated unprecedented controversy amongst scientists. This book, based
on a series of radio broadcasts, includes interviews by Paul Davies with
eight eminent physicists:
-
Alain Aspect
-
John Bell
-
John Wheeler
-
Rudolf Peierls
-
David Deutsch
-
John Taylor
-
David Bohm
-
Basil Hiley
Each of these scientists is involved in debating and testing quantum
theory; the diversity of their views regarding the significance of the
theory makes fascinating reading.
