Prologue: The white rabbit.- Part 1: Quantum 2.0 - The second technological revolution arising from the quantum world: Mighty power - How a theory of the microcosm changed our world.-There's plenty of room at the bottom - A new generation of quantum technologies.- Technology on the smallest scales - The possibilities of nanotechnology.- Incredibly fast - From digital to the quantum computer.- Part 2: Quantum Worlds - The bizarre in the very small: Contradictory atoms - Philosophical problems with the smallest building blocks of nature.- Natura facit saltus - On quantum jumps and particles being made out of nothing.- Tertium datur - Wave and particles at the same time.- As well as neither/-nor - Superposition: how things can be here and there at the same time.- Loss of identity - The New Reality Concept of Quantum Physics and its Consequences.- Part 3: From Quantum Field Theories to a "Theory of Everything" -All matter dissolves: Negative energies and the electron spin - Combining the theory of relativity to produce a new quantum theory.- Quantum field theories - All matter dissolves.- Infinity minus infinity gives something finite - How physicists learnt to deal with infinitely large values in the infinitely small.- More and more particles - From the particle zoo to the standard model of elementary particle physics.- Einstein does not fit - The fundamental problem in physics today.- Part 4: Cutting across philosophical, aesthetic, and spiritual, frames of thought: The Path towards Substancelessness - Breaking with 2,600 years of philosophical thought.- A New Understanding of Truth - How quantum physics made absolute reality disappear, and with it absolute truth.- The eternal interplay - Surprising overlaps between quantum physics and Buddhism.- Symmetries - Beauty in the House of Physics.- Quantum Consciousness and the Tao ofPhysics - On quantum holism, quantum healing, and other quantum nonsense.- Quantum physics and faith- Explaining the inexplicable.- Part 5: Entanglement - getting to the crux of the matter: The destinies of cats - The quantum physical measurement problem.- Wigner?s Friend - Quantum physics and consciousness.- EPR and Hidden Variables - The debate about spooky action at a distance.- The experimental resolution of the Bohr- Einstein debate - How entangled particles made their way from theory into practice.- The Age of Entanglement - From spooks to a new quantum revolution.- Schroedinger's cat is alive - The path back to classical physics.- Part 6: The future - Where are we going?: Quantum Revolution 2.0 - When nanobots and quantum computers become part of our everyday lives.
