We first published Quantum: Einstein, Bohr and the Great Debate About the Nature of Reality by Manjit Kumar in 2008 and since then it has become one of the most highly acclaimed books on quantum theory and its history!
This month, Quantum receives a stunning new cover, printed in tactile supermatt (the soft, velvety paper you may have come across before!), designed by Mark Swan.
A thrilling narrative history of science’s most fundamental revolution, and the divisive debate between Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr and the band of brilliant young men at its heart, Quantum reveals how an idea ignited the greatest intellectual debate of the 20th century.
‘Probably the most lucid and detailed intellectual history ever written of a body of theory that makes other scientific revolutions look limp-wristed by comparison’. Nicholas Lezard, Independent
If you have not yet picked up this essential read, you’ll soon be seeing the new cover in your nearest bookshop!
Quantum is available from all good bookshops and as an eBook. Read more about it here. Follow Manjit on Twitter at @imanjitkumar.
