Manjit Kumar's superlative history of science's most fundamental revolution - in a brilliant illustrated edition. In this striking and sumptuous two-colour edition, Manjit Kumar's BBC Samuel Johnson Prize-shortlisted Quantum is wonderfully enriched by over 200 photos, artwork, maps and diagrams. It includes photos, some intimate and often little-seen before, of all the key protagonists; reproductions of key documents such as revealing letters and correspondence; detailed diagrams explaining the science and bringing to life classic thought experiments; and evocative portraits of the period, particularly of Cambridge, Copenhagen and Germany of the 1920s and 30s.
