Heisenberg's theorem stated that there were physical limits to what we could know about sub-atomic particles; this \"uncertainty\" would have shocking implications. In a riveting and lively account, David Lindley captures this critical episode and explains one of the most important scientific discoveries in history, which has since transcended the boundaries of science and influenced everything from literary theory to television.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Lindley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1400079969\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781400079964\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anchor Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.98h x 5.32w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/13\/2008 pg. 28","brand":"David Lindley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43996223734015,"sku":"9781400079964","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f741d87e-b1f3-458d-a5f9-4d5f17b8e6b9.jpg?v=1683340455","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/uncertainty-david-lindley-9781400079964","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
