Reviews for In Search of Schrodinger's Cat
The development of Quantum Mechanics
This book gives an organized picture of the development of quantum theory and how the pieces fit together. John Gribbin gives an interesting description of how quantum theory evolved as well as how the notion of reality itself had to be rethought. The book leaves you with an open end - which is where John Gribbin's "Schrodinger's Kittens" starts of.
I think this is one of the first books you should read, when starting your way into Quantum Mechanics. by Rui Antunes
