The Quantum World: Quantum Physics for Everyone by Kenneth W. Ford
2.0
Not quite for "everyone": I thought a lot of the concepts in the book were very poorly explained. I have previous read several books on quantum mechanics, and this book was in no way clear, concise, and organized. That definitely doesn't help when dealing with a subject as difficult as quantum mechanics. I really believe though that even such a difficult subject can be explained in terms that a 12 year old could understand, but this book simply does not succeed. My understanding has improved somewhat as a result of reading it, but only slightly. Recommended only if you've already tried other books like "In search of schrodinger's cat."
