Quantasic

I’m reading what most would consider dry, but to me pretty interesting, book on the history of modern physics. It really gets my juices going not to mention that it has a very human narrative, which goes a long way to convey the sense of excitement and awe that scientists get at comprehending the most fundamental, mysterious parts of nature and the universe.

Plus it has a great title too: Quantum Generations: A History of Physics in the Twentieth Century
