Many of you who are familiar with some of my writing are familiar with the fact that I am enamored with the possibilities of Quantum Theory. I started off back in 1972 at the University of Texas at Austin as a Physics and Astronomy major where I was exposed to the physical attributes of this theory. Later, while studying Mass Communication at Arkansas State University and Communication at the University of Missouri - Columbia, I was exposed to Q-methodology and the works of William Stephenson and how Quantum theory applies to communication. The result is that I wanted to go back to the source and read the original papers that gave birth to Quantum Theory again.

The result is that I reread Relativity: The Special and the General Theory. Don't even think that I am going to critique the works of Einstein here. The purpose of this review is to recommend, for those of you interested in learning more about Quantum Theory, that you read this work as the source of this theoretical approach.

Many of the mathematical formulas required to understand the mathematics of Quantum are first exposed to the public in this great work. Don't expect to understand it all. I really don't think anyone does. Then again, that just might be their quantum reality where they understand it. Needless to say, this book is required reading for those interested in Quantum theory.
