"Searching for Schrödinger's Cat" is a popular science book spanning multiple disciplines such as quantum mechanics, physics and philosophy. It is like a scientific guide, taking readers through the development process of physics in the 20th century; it is also like a history of ideas, showing the thinking process of physicists very clearly, allowing readers to see the failures of scientists before they succeed.
In "Searching for Schrödinger's Cat," Gribbin vividly describes the process by which scientists arrive at their theories, making it easy for readers to understand the reality of the moment and quantum mechanics in general.
Reader comments
The author explains those complicated theories very vividly, just like chatting with a friend. However, I kind of hate people who misunderstand quantum theory, they are simply misleading everyone! I remember a sentence in the book: "Quantum mechanics is a mystery, just like the supernatural and the supersensory." This sentence is so classic! All in all, this is a good book worth reading.
