The world you can feel and touch is built of atoms, the smallest identifiable chunks of matter. Yet the heart of each atom is itself a whole new world, a world populated by quarks: indivisible, vanishingly small, the ultimate building blocks of our universe. This inner world where quarks reign is subject to new and unfamiliar rules, the rules of the quantum world. Colossal part...(展开全部)

加拿大新生代科幻作家的代表人物，以理论扎实的硬科幻作品见长，获得过“阿西莫夫读者投票奖”。他的短篇和中篇作品均由《科幻世界·译文版》引入中国，如《洄游》《神祗窃贼》《刺之道》等，大获读者好评。《量子魔术师》是他的首部长篇小说，充分表现了这位作家一贯的风格：基于既有理论的奇特想象，展示出一幅阴森黯淡、甚至令人毛骨悚然的未来图景。

Following the success of The Quantum Universe, first published in 1987, a host of exciting new discoveries have been made in the field of quantum mechanics. The New Quantum Universe provides an up-to-date and accessible introduction to the essential ideas of quantum physics, and demonstrates how it affects our everyday life. Quantum mechanics gives an understanding of not only ...(展开全部)

The quantum Hall effects remains one of the most important subjects to have emerged in condensed matter physics over the past 20 years. The fractional quantum Hall effect, in particular, has opened up a new paradigm in the study of strongly correlated electrons, and it has been shown that new concepts, such as fractional statistics, anyon, chiral Luttinger liquid and composite ...(展开全部)

A Nobel Prize-winning physicist discusses the science of simplicity and complexity, describing the intricate interrelationships that exist in nature between the simple (a quark in an atom) and the complex (the jaguar prowling its jungle environment). 25,000 first printing.
