"Pop science, but from one of the guys in on the ground floor of quantum physics. Lots of fun to hear about the personalities (Fermi, Bohr, Pauli, etc.), but the latter parts assume some familiarity with some of the physics and, to a lesser extent, some calculus and linear algebra."
"This is one of my all time favorite popular books on physics! I read it when I was 15 yrs old and the stories (and the physics!) have inspired me since then!"
