About the Book
Are there quantum mysteries? Yes! Are there theological mysteries? Yes! Do they intersect? Yes! So, you'll learn some of the physics basic to understanding quantum mechanics (non-mathematical), you'll understand more of what quantum mechanics is all about by following the history of how the theory developed, and you'll be amazed at the strangeness of quantum mechanics, as shown in two experiments: the double slit and delayed choice. You'll see that quantum mysteries do indeed intersect theological.

Retired, cranky, old physicist. Convert to Catholicism in 1995. Trying to show that there is no contradiction between what science tells us about the world and our Catholic faith. Intermittent blogs and adult education classes to achieve this end (see http://rationalcatholic.blogspot.com/ and http://home.ptd.net/~rkurland)
