Reviews
"A remarkable and readable presentation of the basic mysteries of science, our universe, and human life. Critically important problems in our understanding are interestingly discussed with perception, depth, and careful objectivity."--Charles Townes, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics, inventor ofthe laser, and Templeton Prize recipient "Employing the simplest, correct demonstration of the Great Quantum Dilemma that I have ever seen, Rosenblum and Kuttner starkly expose the hidden skeleton in the physicist's closet."--Nick Herbert, author of Quantum Reality "This book is unique. I know of no other which so artfully tackles two of the greatest mysteries of modern science, quantum mechanics and consciousness. It has long been suspected that these mysteries are somehow related. The authors' treatment of this thorny and controversial issue is honest, wide-ranging and immensely readable. The book contains some of the clearest expositions I have ever seen of the strange and paradoxical nature of the quantum world.Quantum Enigmais a pleasure to read, and I am sure it is destined to become a classic."--George Greenstein, Professor of Astronomy,Amherst College, Co-author of The Quantum Challenge: Modern Research on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics "The boundary of existence that modern physics finds itself butting against is consciousness. The cautious, sober approach ofQuantum Enigmamakes its astonishing conclusions all the more credible. This is an immensely important and exciting book."--Raymond Chester Russ, Editor, Journal of Mind andBehavior "Thoroughly engaging for both seasoned physicists and interested laypersons. Fascinating, important."--Choice, "In their lively and thought-provoking presentation, Mr. Rosenblum and Mr. Kuttner present several proposed alternatives to the Copenhagen interpertation, but all raise their own questions. Notable among them is the bizarre but increasingly popular 'many words' interpretation taht says thatquantum mechanics correctly describes the simultaneous existence of many different worlds, which are continously being created and separating from each other."-- The Washington Times, "The boundary of existence that modern physics finds itself butting against is consciousness.
