Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. Stated First Edition, 1st printing. Louisa Gilder signed/dated/located on title page. 444pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, gently used, in Very Good condition. "A brilliantly original and richly illuminating exploration of entanglement, the seemingly telepathic communication between two separated particles--one of the fundamental concepts of quantum physics. [] In 1935, in what would become the most cited of all of his papers, Albert Einstein showed that quantum mechanics predicted such a correlation, which he dubbed 'spooky action at a distance.' In that same year, Erwin Schrödinger christened this spooky correlation 'entanglement.' Yet its existence wasn't firmly established until 1964, in a groundbreaking paper by the Irish physicist John Bell. What happened during those years and what has happened since to refine the understanding of this phenomenon is the fascinating story told here." [jacket flap copy] "An admirable, unexpected book, historically sound and seamlessly constructed, that transports those of us who do not understand quantum mechanics into the lives and thoughts of those who did."--George Dyson. "A witty, charming, and accurate account of the history of that bugaboo of physics--quantum entanglement. . . There are many books out there on the history or foundations of quantum mechanics. Some are more technical, others more historical, but none take the unique approach that Gilder has--to focus on the quantum weirdness of entanglement itself as her book's unifying theme and to present it in an inviting and accessible way. . . I was enthralled and found the book delightful."--Jonathan P. Dowling, Science. "Louisa Gilder disentangles the story of entanglement with such narrative panache, such poetic verve and such metaphorical precision that for a moment I almost thought I understood quantum mechanics."--Matt Ridley. Near-pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp deckle edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in an intact VG jacket w/some edge fades, quite presentable.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. 1st Edition. xvi, 443, [3] pages. Footnotes. Illustrations. A Note to the Reader. Glossary. Longer Summaries. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Louisa Gilder was born in Tyringham, Massachusetts, and graduated from Dartmouth College in 2000. This is her first book. In The Age of Entanglement, Louisa Gilder brings to life one of the pivotal debates in twentieth century physics. In 1935, Albert Einstein famously showed that, according to the quantum theory, separated particles could act as if intimately connected-a phenomenon which he derisively described as "spooky action at a distance." In that same year, Erwin Schrödinger christened this correlation "entanglement." Yet its existence was mostly ignored until 1964, when the Irish physicist John Bell demonstrated just how strange this entanglement really was. Gilder both humanizes and dramatizes the story by employing the scientists' own words in imagined face-to-face dialogues. The result is a richly illuminating exploration of one of the most exciting concepts of quantum physics. A brilliantly original and richly illuminating exploration of entanglement, the seemingly telepathic communication between two separated particles, one of the fundamental concepts of quantum physics. What has happened to refine the understanding of this phenomenon is the fascinating story told here. We move from a coffee shop in Zurich, where Einstein and Max von Laue discuss the madness of quantum theory, to a bar in Brazil, as David Bohm and Richard Feynman chat over cervejas. We travel to the campuses of American universities, from J. Robert Oppenheimer's Berkeley to the Princeton of Einstein and Bohm to Bell's Stanford sabbatical, and we visit centers of European physics: Copenhagen, home to Bohr's famous institute, and Munich, where Werner Heisenberg and Wolfgang Pauli picnic on cheese and heady discussions of electron orbits. Here are Bohr and Einstein clashing, and Heisenberg and Pauli deciding which mysteries to pursue. We see Schrödinger and Louis de Broglie pave the way for Bell, whose work is here given a long-overdue revisiting. And with his characteristic matter-of-fact eloquence, Richard Feynman challenges his contemporaries to make something of this entanglement. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.
