Beneath the surface of things -- How small is small? How fast is fast? -- Meet the Leptons -- The rest of the extended family -- Quantum lumps -- Quantum jumps -- Social and antisocial particles -- Clinging to constancy -- Waves and particles -- Pushing the limits
"As Kenneth W. Ford shows in The Quantum World, the laws governing the very small and the very swift defy common sense and stretch our minds to the limit. Drawing on a deep familiarity with the discoveries of the twentieth century, Ford gives an account of quantum physics that will help the serious reader make sense of a science that, for all its successes, remains mysterious."--Jacket
