Book Synopsis

"An eccentric comic about the central mystery of quantum mechanics"--Amazon.



Trade Review
"The structure of Totally Random is a radical departure from the usual. . . . The ‘quoin’-flipping examples are really outstanding for illustrating the key experiments involved in modern quantum physics, particularly when it gets to the later examples of applications to cryptography and teleportation."---Chad Orzel, Forbes
"If you ever wondered about quantum entanglement and why it's so weird, this book is perhaps the best, simplest explainer of how it actually works."---Ethan Siegel, Forbes
"A beautiful book, conceptually, artistically, and in the way that the concepts and art are combined to engage with the reader in a meaningful way."---Michael E. Cuffaro and Emerson P. Doyle, Foundations of Physics
"[Totally Random] is an interesting experiment. Quantum mechanics is not easy to grasp. What [this book] makes clear is what entanglement really means."---Adhemar Bultheel, European Mathematical Society
"Totally Random delivers a real understanding of some seriously funny stuff. Solid references and notes augment the presentation. Totally Random, a 'serious comic,' provides an excellent introduction to quantum mechanics, better perhaps than a massive textbook, certainly more interesting."---John F. Barber, Leonardo Reviews
"It’s more fun than you ever thought you could have learning about quantum mechanics." * BBC Science Focus *
