Description: The Quantum Astrologer's Handbook by Michael Brooks Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description At once a biography, a history of science, an explanation of quantum theory, and an engrossing story, this volume explores the life and work Jerome Cardano, a 16th-century polymath from Milan who is the unacknowledged discoverer of the mathematical foundations of quantum physics. Publisher Description This is a landmark in science writing that resurrects from the vaults of neglect the polymath Jerome Cardano, a Milanese of the sixteenth century. Who is Jerome Cardano? A gambler and blasphemer, inventor and schemer, plagued by demons and anxieties, astrologer to kings, emperors, and popes. This stubborn and unworldly man was the son of a lawyer and a brothel keeper, but also a gifted physician and the unacknowledged discoverer of the mathematical foundations of quantum physics. The Quantum Astrologers Handbook, like Jerome, has multiple occupations: it is at once a biography, a history of science, an explanation of quantum theory, and an engrossing story which is truly original in its style and, in the manner of the modernists, embodies in its very form its theories about the world. The Quantum Astrologers Handbook is a science book with the panache of a novel, a work of and about genius. Author Biography Michael Brooks is a science writer with a PhD in quantum physics, and the author of several books, including the bestselling 13 Things That Dont Make Sense and The Quantum Astrologers Handbook, a Daily Telegraph Book of the Year.
