In the quantum world, a particle can behave like a wave and accordingly seems to <br />
be in two places at the same time. This of course is contradictory to our daily <br />
experiences with classical particles. How then should this be understood? What <br />
happens in the transitional area between the classical world and quantum <br />
mechanics? The present book answers exciting questions like these in a way that <br />
is easy to follow and to understand and is shows that the link between these two <br />
worlds will have concrete and applied effects on our daily life in the near <br />
future. It will, for example, improve and change the conventional methods of <br />
information processing. With the help of quantum cryptography, it will be <br />
possible to communicate tap-proof. Using quantum computers we will be able to <br />
solve highly complicated problems in a very short time.<br />
