Publisher Description: Alice in Wonderland leaps into the twenty-first century of quantum paradoxes and chaotic attractors. In a series of engaging stories, several of the world's leading science writers speculate on what would happen if the young Alice were to enter the world of quarks, fractals, chaos theory, Heisenberg's uncertainty, the very center of the universe, and theories of everything. The book also contains a glossary, very accessible to the lay reader, of definitions and explanations of the curious quantum world. |
