Schrodinger used this cat in a box to dream up the first quantum paradox. A paradox is something that doesn’t make sense. there must be an assumption that is causing offense.

Schrodinger’s cat is a thought experiment meant to explain the flawed interpretation of quantum superposition. Chris Ferrie has broken down the theory into a whimsical picture book perfect for science nerds. Even the youngest generation of future scientists will enjoy the playful cadence of this lighthearted story!

‘This whimsical little book is very much Schroedinger meets Seuss, or perhaps The Cat in the Hat hides in a box. In a fun and simply metered poem, University of Technology Sydney physicist Chris Ferrie explains quantum theorist Erwin Schroedinger’s famous cat thought experiment, providing simple explanations of concepts such as wave-particle duality and superpositions along the way. The verse is illustrated by plenty of child-friendly cartoons, courtesy of Baltimore-based illustrator Kevin Sherry. Recommended for curious school children, befuddled adults, and anyone who likes hard science and light literature held in weird entanglement.’ - Andrew Masterson, Spectrum
