About this audiobook
Can quantum mechanics be a complete description of reality? In 1935 Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen argued no: if measuring one particle lets you predict another's properties with certainty at any distance, those properties must be real, yet quantum states cannot represent them all, so something is missing. This book traces the whole arc of the argument that refused to die: the Einstein-Bohr debates, Schrödinger's coining of entanglement, von Neumann's flawed impossibility proof, and John Bell's 1964 theorem, which turned a philosophical standoff into a measurable number. It follows fifty years of experiments, from the first Bell tests of the 1970s through Aspect's switching experiments, the loophole-free tests of 2015, and satellite entanglement across 1,200 kilometers, and explains what the results actually refute, what they leave untouched, and why no signal ever travels faster than light.
