“While some may sniff at the liberties this book takes in imagining the processes of mind that lead to the signature scientific breakthroughs of the 20th century, they should get over themselves, because this is an exhilarating conjuring of, to steal from Richard Holmes, the beauty and terror of science, how what's possible can change, and dark shadows cast by brilliance.”

“STUNNING. translated to English, wish I could read the original. Truly nothing I love more than a book that dances between non fiction and fiction. This book also has the best explanation of quantum mechanics for laypeople/non-experts (I think.. someone who didn’t study QM in school let me know what you think)”
