I enjoyed the tone of this a lot, but i found the content very difficult to understand. I think thats probably because it generally is. The author had a lot of enthusiasm which i liked, and I liked the stream of consciousness style. But a tricky read, and I found myself hoping I'd get to the end soon at points!

A clear and interesting introduction to the ideas embedded in what the word quantum brings. I love the first half of the book. The second half - deals more with philosophical and linguistic aspects, is less intriguing to me just because of my personal preferences. Regardless, the first half already introduces me and helps me to rethink a lot of the ongoing forever existent objective assumptions of the world.

Carlo Rovelli is a poet of physics. Simplicity at its rawest and most beautiful.
