In the pulp magazines and comics of the 1950s, it was predicted that the future would be one of gleaming utopias, with flying cars, jetpacks, and robotic personal assistants. Obviously, things didn't turn out that way. But the world we do have is actually more fantastic than the most outlandish predictions of science fiction from the mid-20th century. The internet, mobile phones and MRI machines have changed the world in unimaginable ways.
In The Amazing Story of Quantum Mechanics, James Kakalios explains the fundamentals of quantum mechanics and nuclear energy through speculative science fiction, space adventures, graphic novels and films that have led to technological innovations - breakthroughs that will make possible a future beyond our wildest imaginings.
