The quantum moment : how Planck, Bohr, Einstein, and Heisenberg taught us to love uncertainty / Robert P. Crease, Alfred Scharff Goldhaber

This study examines the evolution of quantum mechanics from a scientific theory into a cultural phenomenon. It analyses how concepts like the uncertainty principle and Schrödinger's cat have been integrated into art, literature, and popular language.
