Without quantum physics, your breakfast – and so many other things we take for granted – wouldn’t be possible… international bestselling author and physicist Chad Orzel shows us why
A Sunday Times Book of the Year



From the author of the international bestseller How to Teach Quantum Physics to Your Dog



Your humble alarm clock, digital cameras, the smell of coffee, the glow of a grill, fibre broadband, smoke detectors… all hold secrets about quantum physics.



Beginning at sunrise, Chad Orzel reveals the extraordinary science that underpins the simplest activities we all do every day, from making toast to shopping online. It’s all around us, the wonderful weirdness of quantum – you just have to know where to look.

Chad Orzel is an associate professor at the department of physics and astronomy at Union College. He has written for Forbes, Daily Mail and Physics World, and has spoken at numerous TED talks. His previous books have been translated into more than a dozen languages. He lives in Niskayuna, New York.
