The Dancing
Wu Li Masters:An Overview of the New Physics
is the bible for non-physicists who want to
know about quantum mechanics, particle physics,
and relativity. It won The American Book Award
for Science, and has been translated into
16 languages. This timeless, humorous masterpiece
is probably the most widely acclaimed introduction
to quantum physics ever written.
It’s hard to find anyone with an interest
in physics who doesn't rave about this book!
If you are interested in quantum physics,
but you don't like or understand mathematics,
this book is definitely for you.
Zukav is such a skillful expositor,
with such amiable style, that it is hard to
imagine a layman who would not find this book
enjoyable and informative.
—Martin Gardner, Scientific American
Stripped of mathematics, physics becomes
pure enchantment...you'll come away from this
book feeling like a Wu Li master yourself.
—Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, The New
York Times
This book is an extremely clear and
easily understandable account of quantum physics,
which can be read with equal profit by those
who have little or no mathematical or technical
knowledge, and by those who specialize in
the study of physics and its research...
— David Bohm, legendary physicist and
author of Quantum Theory and other books
..this book is not only readable, but
it also puts the reader in touch with all
the various ways that physicists have worked
out for talking about what is so hard to talk
about. In short, Gary Zukav has written a
very good book...
— David Finkelstein, Director of the
School of Physics, Georgia Institute of Technology
