Amazon.com ReviewMy eyes tend to glaze over when I encounter YAPBAQPs (Yet Another Popular Book About Quantum Physics). But this volume captured my attention, and imagination. Told in the same way as Alice in Wonderland (with many of the original passages re-tooled to their new purpose) and a hint of Flatland, Gilmore guides us through the principles of Quantum mechanics in a truly lively and fun way. I suspect it may even be a good read for teens or extremely bright children. ReviewIt (..) includes characters like the uncertain accountant and the state agent who shows Alice how items can be two places at once. -- The Vancouver SunPages of Alice in Quantumland: An Allegory of Quantum Physics :
