Quantum Theory: A Very Short Introduction ?John Polkinghorne has produced an excellent piece of work. . . . Many authors of ??popular?? books on modern physics have the regrettable habit of mixing science fact with science ?ction. Polkinghorne never does that: he always allows the truth to stand by itself and show its own fascination. . . . I think that this is an excellent contribution to the literature on quantum theory for a general audience.? Chris Isham, Imperial College, London ?This splendid book explains both the triumph and the mystery that is quantum theory. It is a triumph because of its towering mathematical structure, and amazing empirical accuracy. It is a mystery because of the conundrums about how to interpret it.
