Quantum field theory is often overlooked, yet it offers a way through the puzzles of quantum mechanics and the paradoxes raised by relativity. This book presents the subject to general readers without resorting to mathematics.

The author also traces the quantum underpinnings of Einstein's well-known equation linking mass and energy.
