Quantum physics deals with subatomic particles, which are the building blocks of all matter. So, in that sense, we already exist in a quantum reality, Kolodrubetz said. And because people are made of quantum particles, they are quantum mechanical beings. Rather than being a place, quantum physics is about size.

Niels Bohr and Max Planck, two of the founding fathers of Quantum Theory, each received a Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on quanta. Einstein is considered the third founder of Quantum Theory because he described light as quanta in his theory of the Photoelectric Effect, for which he won the 1921 Nobel Prize.

In the quantum universe, everything is both “particle-like” and “wave-like.” We, too, are both “particles,” unique individuals, and “waves,” patterns on the quantum sea of energy, overlapping with all the other waves.

Working through the problems requires a lot of work and time, and this is the only way to learn difficult concepts. I still use this textbook as a reference in my professional life. In summary: an excellent book that requires a lot of work. This book was our set book for Quantum mechanics.
