Why read it?
1 author picked Quantum Physics as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Next, quantum cryptography, some experiments, and even quantum teleportation are presented in a truly pedestrian way. I much enjoyed reading this book.
From Nicolas' list on nonlocality, teleportation, and other quantum marvels.
