Why Nobody Understands Quantum Physics is a unique, highly readable introduction to quantum physics, co-authored by leading physicist Frank Verstraete and writer Céline Broeckaert. The book aims to make the most counterintuitive and foundational theory in science accessible—even to those without a background in mathematics or physics.

Verstraete and Broeckaert weave together scientific explanation, history, and personal narrative. They explore why quantum physics is so difficult to grasp, not just for laypeople but even for physicists themselves. The book argues that, while quantum theory is the cornerstone of modern technology and underpins much of our daily lives, its concepts often defy common sense and resist full comprehension—even by experts.
