Quantum physics - or quantum mechanics as it is also called - completely shattered Newtonian laws and challenged scientists to think differently about matter and subatomic particles. This title leads the readers through important papers on quantum physics, including the scholarship of Niels Bohr, Max Planck, Werner Heisenberg, and Max Born.
