Quantum theory :
Polkinghorne, J. C., 1930-
Quantum theory : a very short introduction - Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 2002. - 113 p. : ill. ; 18 cm. - Very short introductions ; 69 .
Quantum Theory is the most revolutionary discovery in physics since Newton. This book gives a lucid, exciting, and accessible account of the surprising and counterintuitive ideas that shape our understanding of the sub-atomic world. It does not disguise the problems of interpretation that still remain unsettled 75 years after the initial discoveries. The main text makes no use of equations, but there is a Mathematical Appendix for those desiring stronger fare.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 93-94) and index.
