Book Description
What is entanglement? Its a quantum process that connects two particles (say, photons of light) in such a way that changes to one of the particles are reflectedinstantlyin the other, even if theyre light-years apart. Why do we care? The possibilities read like something out of science fiction: Communications devices that could span the stars Codes that simply cannot be broken lest the very laws of physics be overturned Computers that dwarf todays machines in speed and power Teleportation And lots more. In Quantum Entanglement, veteran science writer Brian Clegg has written an exceptionally readable account of entanglement, its history, and its application. Whether youre a popular science fan, or just someone interested in the marvelous possibilities coming down the quantum road, you will find much to marvel, illuminate, and delight.

Basic Quantum Science.......2007-07-19
If you have ever really wondered what quantum mechanics is really all about, and you have a deep distrust of Ramtha, then this is a great little book. You can get clear explanation of some of the weirdest parts of Q and some of the most exciting.
Book Review.......2007-04-06
Totally outstanding dissertation on a most abstract area of quantum physics .
Erudite , yet learned ; and eminently understandable .
Best left unread.......2006-12-21
I am afraid I have to agree with Dr Mbogo. I simply mistrust the accuracy of the author's explanations. He cannot, as Dr Mbogo points out, even get right the basic notions of Cantor's treatment of infinity, repeatedly referring to numbers other than whole numbers as "fractions" - see pp. 172, 173.

A peek inside the engines of creation..........2006-12-01
Although this book has been justly criticized it remains nonetheless a serviceable examination of one of nature's most interesting phenomenon: quantum engtanglement.
Momentarily, the book's shortcomings, but first, it's strength.
Quantum entanglement is sort of the platypus of physics...so unlike the phenomenon around it that it forces us to ask essential questions about the nature of physics itself. As has been commonly discussed in other popular physics works, there are four fundamental forces of nature. Two of them operate at the macroscopic level being gravity and electromagnatism and the other two operate miscroscopically at the nuclear level being the strong and weak nuclear forces.
Significantly, each force has some type of distance limitation attached to it. So, to move a ball I have to somehow come into contact with it. Or likewise to move and electron I have to somehow sub atomicly come in to contact with it.
However, such is not the case with quantum entanglement where as Albert Einstein observed we see a "spooky action at a distance." In other words, when two particles have been mated they immedaitely assume like properties (in the case of sub atomic particles for example, a like spin or orientation). Once entangled, one has merely to effect the orientation of one partner to the mating to effect the other.
That's exactly the aspect of entanglement that made Einstein an ardent opponent of entanglement because ostensibly it seemed to violate his notions that light speed was the ultimate speed limit. Remember: in quantum entanglement effecting the orientation of one partner immediately effects the other partner. Einstein also saw as noxious the idea that this seemed to violate his notions of local action like me effecting a ball by somehow making contact with it.
While quantum entanglement is great stuff for science fiction plots, it has some basic limitations that seriously curtail its applications...all of which are discussed by Clegg. Most significantly, it's properly called a quantum effect because it is just that...something uniquely naturally peculiar to the sub atomic world. The reason is that when the mated particles are set free, their orientations can be changed by ANY examination...including those typically done by nature.
So, let's we were to recall Shroedinger's cat for another experiment (hopefully he's still alive!), and we were to want to entangle the entire cat. Our first biggest problem would be the natural interactions occuring between the cat and his environment between our attempt at entangling him and our attempt to unentangle him at the end of the process.
Significantly, this most important potential application of entanglement -- teleportation -- is touched upon by Clegg.
Also significantly, Clegg manages to cover the main entanglement issues as they exist at the time of his writing.
However, and this where his limitations show themselves. Though his book clearly has some very lucid moments and helpful discussion, it also contains some distracting segeways and inclusions of material put there perhaps most likely to pad the length of the manuscript. Also, the titling of the work as "The God Effect" seems nothing more than an attempt to create a provocative title to encourage book sales.
Even despite these limitations, the book is still on the whole well written and highly serviceable and undeniably discusses one of the most interesting phenomenon in nature. So, while this may be a good first book to read on the topic, by all means do not make it your last.
Great Read.......2006-08-12
If you are a physics major or well versed and well read on the subject this might not be the best book for you.
If you are someone interested in the subject but don't have a lot of time or brain power to get really deep into physics this is a great book for you.
Accessible, with deep yet clear examples, Clegg's book takes the reader on an interesting ride into physics, quantum entanglement and the possibilities.
I found this book to be a fun read and his explanations were direct and easily comprehendible. Most books on this subject can be dry and down right boring. This book is different in that it keeps the reader interested, educates and elucidates possibilities and ideas, and I learned a little bit about the social world of physics and the characters of that stage.
The only thing that did distract me was the title. Having nothing, or maybe everything, to do with "God", nor mentioning the phenomenon, I thought it a little off the mark. But it is a catchy title and if you let you mind wander the possibilities are definitely there.
Fun read!

The Snare answers tough questions........2005-10-22
The author gives you answers and guidance from her own experience and those of others in dealing with being single or single again when it comes to sexual entanglements. She does not mince words, but follows the guidelines God's Word gives us. She also gives examples of real situations. It is also relevant for married people who want to know how to avoid inappropriate sexual entanglements with others, and gives examples of situations that can lead to inappropriate entanglements. I have read the book once and intend to read it again.
Bullseye for Purity and Boundaries.......2001-02-16
This book contains the both the safeguard wisdom and diagnosis advice to help a marriage under temptation. It was a blessing to me when I researching for, "Surviving Temptataion Island." DaveDavidson.com
Insightful and penetrating.......1998-08-24
This book provides an excellent look at the reality of sexual intimacy, and the power it has to cause trouble if not carefully managed.
Rabey's insight into the attitudes and habits of both men and women is both reassuring and unsettling. It's refreshing to read an author who understands what men & women go through - but disturbing that she seems to know us almost too well! She calls us all to the carpet on the true motives behind much of what we consider "innocent" behavior, shooting straight without being too "preachy".
Fans of Dr. Laura will find this work a similar call for accountability in an age of relative mores and sexual abandon. Far from leaving the reader feeling shamed and defeated, the ultimate impact of "The Snare" is to open our eyes to the reality of sexual intimacy, it's beauty, it's purpose, and it's power.
High explosives are a helpful invention, serving many useful purposes - but you wouldn't want to mis-handle them. Ms. Rabey points out that sexual intimacy, like dynamite, can be dangerous when used in the wrong way.

Moving Beyond the Comfort Zone in Psychotherapy
ASIN: 0765703696 |
Book Description
Countertransference responses within the therapist pose a formidable challenge for the clinician, who must carefully examine reactions that may be distressing. These potentially disruptive responses, however, are a valuable source of understanding that can deepen the therapeutic process. This book presents numerous manifestations of countertransference interactions and how they influence treatment, and gives guidelines for effective clinical interventions.

Recommended Reading for Any Clinician.......2006-12-15
Dr. Wishnie's work is a gem of a book; in cogent, clear language, using plenty examples from his own practice, he dissects the complex transaction between clinician and patient known as countertransference.
Countertransference has always been the bete noir of the therapeutic relationship. What to do when inevitable feelings of anger, disgust, etc. arise?
Dr. Wishnie's antidote is to learn how to "metabolize" these feelings through a use of self-questioning, and self-reflection. It is not as easy as it sounds, and you will learn some things about countertransference that will make you accutely aware of your reactions; an awareness you may not have had heretofore.
This book is a little pricey, but well worth the investment. It is not written for the novice, but could be used by the beginner under supervision.
Book Description
Recently, quantum information theory has been developing through a fusion of results from various research fields. This requires that understanding of basic results on diverse topics, and derived from different disciplinary perspectives, is required for appreciating the overall picture. Intended to merge key topics from both the information-theoretic and quantum- mechanical viewpoints, this graduate-level textbook provides a unified viewpoint of quantum information theory and lucid explanations of those basic results, so that the reader fundamentally grasps advances and challenges. For example, advanced topics in quantum communication such as quantum teleportation, superdense coding, quantum state transmission (quantum error-correction), and quantum encryption especially benefit from this unified approach. Unlike earlier treatments, the text requires knowledge of only linear algebra, probability theory, and quantum mechanics, while it treats the topics of quantum hypothesis testing and the discrimination of quantum states, and quantum channel coding (message transmission) with the minimal amount of math needed to convey their essence. Solving the more than 240 exercises provides readers with practice that not only enriches their knowledge of quantum information theory, but also can equip them with the techniques necessary for pursuing their own research in this field.

Not an introduction at all, but very impressive.......2006-11-11
This book is an apparently very good translation from a previous Japanese version. It is packed with extremely technical results perhaps not available elsewhere. The title is rather deceptive. It is not by any means an introduction to the topic.
Book Description
Quantum physics is often perceived as a weird and abstract theory, which physicists must use in order to make correct predictions. But many recent experiments have shown that the weirdness of the theory simply mirrors the weirdness of phenomena: it is Nature itself, and not only our description of it, that behaves in an astonishing way. This book selects those, among these typical quantum phenomena, whose rigorous description requires neither the formalism, nor an important background in physics. The first part of the book deals with the phenomenon of single-particle interference, covering the historical questions of wave-particle duality, objective randomness and the boundary between the quantum and the classical world, but also the recent idea of quantum cryptography. The second part introduces the modern theme of entanglement, by presenting two-particle interference phenomena and discussing Bell's inequalities. A concise review of the main interpretations of quantum physics is provided.

A 'MUST BUY' for novices.......2006-07-11
I would not give this a five star rating only because it is not PERFECT! I actually intend to give it a 4 1/2 rating in fact.
I liked this book for four things:
1) This is such a small book. (Lesser the words one speaks, the better to listen).
2) No technical blabbering, but STILL maintains clarity of concepts.
3) Tells about real experiments.
4) One of the latest on the old subject (as of July 2006!).
Now to give an example of the minor defects that I noticed - The Unbalanced Franson's Interferometer explanation could leave the novice reader confused as to why the tiny time difference could not lead to distinguishability. There is nothing in the main text that even hints about this.
All in all, this is a MUST BUY for all 'physics-maths' kind of people who have are new to QM.
Book Description
Will "beam me up, Scotty" become reality? Quantum mechanics suggests it may . . . and soon.
Since cyberspace -- a word coined by a science fiction writer -- became reality, the lines between "science" and "science fiction" have become increasingly blurred. Now, the young field of quantum mechanics holds out the promise that some of humanity's wildest dreams may be realized. Serious scientists, working off of theories first developed by Einstein and his colleagues seventy years ago, have been investigating the phenomenon known as "entanglement," one of the strangest aspects of the strange universe of quantum mechanics.
According to Einstein, quantum mechanics required entanglement -- the idea that subatomic particles could become inextricably linked, and that a change to one such particle would instantly be reflected in its counterpart, even if a universe separated them. Einstein felt that if the quantum theory could produce such incredibly bizarre effects, then it had to be invalid. But new experiments both in the United States and Europe show not only that it does happen, but that it may lead to unbreakable codes, and even teleportation, perhaps in our lifetimes. . . .

Great book, bad publishing.......2006-03-22
I enjoyed the book until about page 200, when the pages were out of order (not the page numbers, the text) and diagrams were missing. This edition of the book should be pulled from Amazon. Buy the paperback instead, the publisher got it right.
The Quantum Reality Einstein Could Not Suppose.......2003-11-03
In 1935 Einstein, Rosen and Podolsky raised a serious criticism of quantum theory in the form of a paradox. The criticism meant that quantum theory brings about a "spooky action at distance" or "entanglement" between quantum subsystems. Two photons generated at a point with a correlation, for example, continue to have the correlation even after they are separated by a great distance, and a change in the state of one of them affects the other instantaneously. In 1964 John Bell proposed a mathematical theorem experimentally to test the existence of entanglement. Alain Aspect carried out such an experiment in 1982 to show that entanglement is a reality.
Even one of the greatest physicists in history, Albert Einstein, could not suppose that entanglement would be a reality. So it must be quite difficult to make ordinary person understand it. Amir Aczel tried to do this difficult task in this book, but he does not seem to have well succeeded. Just half of a total of 20 chapters is spent to describe the history of quantum mechanics, though a short mention about entanglement appears at a few places. Thus the reader who learned quantum mechanics to some extent at least would find the first half of the book rather tedious. From the story of debate between Einstein and Bohr in chapter 11, the book becomes interesting. However, the author explains neither Bell's theorem nor the details of many experiments understandably. On the final page, the author reveals the reason of difficulty in understanding entanglement writing, "... the quantum theory does not tell us why things happen the way they do; why are the particles entangled?" Was our expectation to the author too big?
A good point of the book is that it includes biographical descriptions of a lot of physicists related to quantum theory and entanglement. I have learned for the first time that Thomas Young, famous for the double slit experiment, was a child prodigy. Schrödinger's anecdotal "entanglement" with women are also told. A bad point is that writing and printing are made rather carelessly. For example, von Neumann's proof of the non-existence of hidden variable in quantum mechanics and John Bell's later challenge to Neumann's assumption are repeatedly described on pages 101 and 102. There are many typos, and especially the contents of pages 234 and 235 should be interchanged. This error, combined with sudden appearance of the description of Borromean rings on page 232, makes the reader confused around these pages.
So Easy to Understand it should be a Gradeschool text.......2003-10-14
This book makes the understanding of the greatest ideas in science as expressed mathematically that it should be taught to gradeschoolers.
It gives anyone who has ever breezed over the commutative property of addition/multiplication in math as simply fundamental, and without depth, a real understanding of exactly how important that property actually is; by logically and simply linking it directly to the uncertainty principal; helping some to understand it easily.
The rest of the book past the point of the commutative property and uncertainty does the same in the same fashion; and whos carese about tiepows if the message is being goteen across...understanding is what's important.
I digress...maybe it should be required reading only in magnet or schools for the more mentally endowed; however I see it as simply brilliant. (This review actually written by Brian Harred, I'm in my girlfriend's account because she was at amazon.com last on this computer).
Seriously, I highly recomend this book to anyone with an intuitive understanding of math and physics, but needs a really good, quick refresher...Brian Harred (also, how did that big blue statement about voting on our own reviews get RIGHT below my thoughts? The stars are not votes; they are the reviewer's opion as expressed in "stars"...
More of a review than speculation.......2003-07-22
The majority of the book is a review of the history of physics leading up to the current understanding of entanglement, including much biographical information about the major players in the quantum mechanics arena. I would have liked to see more than just that last short chapter talking about the implications and possibilities of entanglement.
Great idea, horrible execution.......2003-06-03
Before tackling this book, I had read some of Dr. Aczel's other works, such as The Mystery of the Aleph and Fermat's Last Theorem. I found those books quite enjoyable, so when I heard that he had published a new book on quantum entanglement, I could hardly wait to grab a copy.
After reading it through, I must say I am sorely disappointed to the work. I am still somewhat unclear as to what exactly entanglement is in any depth. His explanations, which are repeated at least a dozen times to no effect, are poor and left me confused. Diagrams are peppered throughout the book with no explanation or captions, leaving one to think that they're there just for eye-candy. Typos abound in the book and some pages are misnumbered (pages 232-4 especially). The book goes on and on about John Bell's famous theorem, but I am still confused as to what this theorem was and why we should care about it. In fact, the practical effects of entanglement aren't even gotten to until practically the last chapter -- the entire rest of the book is simply a biography on those who are or were working on entanglement.
Overall a terribly written book from an author whom I know can do much better. I am left confused as to the very subject matter the book purports to explain. Save your money on this one.
Book Description
From the bestselling author of Fermat's Last Theorem, the story of a group of scientists who set out to finish what Einstein started
Can two particles become inextricably linked, so that a change in one is instantly reflected in its counterpart, even if a universe separates them? Albert Einstein's work suggested it was possible, but it was too bizarre, and too contrary to how we then understood space and time, for him to prove. No one could. Until now.
Entanglement tells the astounding story of the scientists who set out to complete Einstein's work. With accesible language and a highly entertaining tone, Amir Aczel shows us a world where the improbable-from unbreakable codes to teleportation-becomes possible.

Great Introduction to Quantum Mechanics.......2007-10-17
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I am a layman with a deep interest in Physics, and have read many "popular" science books. This is my second Acxel book, and I am a fan.
The book provides a nice walk through the history of Entanglement and Quantum theory. Most of it is understandable to the layman, which probably means that a physics professional would find it overly simple. However, it is by no means an easy read.
I picked up this book with a single question in mind: "What is Entanglement?". Now that I've finished the book, I still don't know. I don't know what state entanglement is, or what causes it. But I do understand that the reason I don't have a nice, clear picture is that it does not yet exist. I know the science is controversial and why. And I do understand what is meant by "entanglement". I feel much more familiar and comfortable with the term, but know that there is much more to learn. I have some simple idea of how to proceed, so I'm happy with the book.
The book provides a lot of background on the people who were involved with the creation of the science. That is good, as such people deserve credit. But why do I need to know the religion of every person? I have a firm belief in God, but I really don't care if someone is Jewish, Christian, Muslim or otherwise. I find that their views and biases are much more useful, which was only lightly covered.
Wonderful popularization!.......2007-10-10
This is a terrific popular exposition on a difficult subject. Also, well written and a good read.
Rich with history and just enough detail to keep you on top of the complex subject material.......2007-08-21
'Entanglement' by Amir D. Aczel is a very interesting read, I highly recommend it to anyone interested in Physics (more specifically, in the subject of quantum philosophy). The author is quite successful in explaining this very complicated subject in such a manner that it does not limit his audience to just physics-savvy folks. I feel completely comfortable in recommending this book to a non-nerd. The phenomena of entangled particles has always fascinated me and I happened to stumbled upon this book right as my curiosity in this subject was peaking. So obviously, I'm biased by my enthusasiam in the subject and of course, I highly recommend it.
(I really liked the mini-quantum history lesson too. With QM it's always nice to hear the progression of experiments that have led us to believe what we do.)
Acxel gives a revelatory account of a quantum phenomenon that is responsible for building the entire large scale universe.......2006-12-01
Aczel gives a fascinating account of the discovery of how two or more quantum particles may be intimately connected over enormous distances. This nonlocal nature of the quantum world proves the validity of quantum theory and demonstrates how the cohesivenes and complexity of the natural world can build up from microscopic particles. Order out of chaos can occur this way. The inevitable conclusion is that human consciousness arises from the entanglements among the myriad electrochemical processes of the brain and evolves to ever greater complexity as new experiences are integrated into the sense of self.
Cute anectodes but imprecise to come up with a correct idea of quantum entanglement.......2006-08-06
At first the book appears entertaining -- but since its title specifically deals with one concept of quantum mechanics, I expected a thorough presentation of it. After a couple of hours reading it, I realized that there was not much precision in the description of almost all physical concepts. For example, I cannot see how can someone get any idea of what the Schrödinger's equation is all about by reading the author's description. When the author switch the "Schrödinger' cat" for Wheeler's cat I thought mainly of it as a joke -- but the author was probably serious; and I think he misunderstood the whole idea of "Schrödinger' cat". The author goes at length on biographical details of some physicists (e.g., Schrödinger) but without much content to the subject at hand, entanglement. It takes a while before the very subject of the book kicks in. About 150 pages out of 284 could easily be removed without disturbing much the physical descriptions. Although the biographical details of all the physicists make it an entertaining book -- but for precise physical details you will probably need another book while you read that one.

Book Description
Symbols, Impossible Numbers, and Geometric Entanglements is the first history of the development and reception of algebra in early modern England and Scotland. Not primarily a technical history, this book analyzes the struggles of a dozen British thinkers to come to terms with early modern algebra, its symbolical style, and negative and imaginary numbers. Professor Pycior uncovers these thinkers as a "test-group" for the symbolic reasoning that would radically change not only mathematics but also logic, philosophy, and language studies. The book also shows how pedagogical and religious concerns shaped the British debate over the relative merits of algebra and geometry. The first book to position algebra firmly in the Scientific Revolution and pursue Newton the algebraist, it highlights Newton's role in completing the evolution of algebra from an esoteric subject into a major focus of British mathematics. Other thinkers covered include Oughtred, Harriot, Wallis, Hobbes, Barrow, Berkeley, and MacLaurin.
