Fourteen-year-old Jawan hadn’t been allowed to see his parents in eight years after the powerful Earth mage apprenticed him, and now he never will. They’d been struck down by the deadly purple plague that ravages Hadley Town. When his master’s magic fails to find a clue to this mystery ailment, Jawan embarks on his own search, and finds himself trapped in a world one billionth his normal size. In the world of Nanosia where Queen Quanta is queen of the Quantum Realm, subatomic particles who have a life and culture all their own.

How far will you follow a passion, which could end up as a wild goose chase? A child’s inquisitiveness turned life mission that gifted sleepless nights to Michio Kaku, is going to rule the world of Physics. This book enraptures the essence and beauty of the world of physics through Michio Kaku’slife. He was obstinate and dedicated his entire life in quest of a unified theory which ultimately led to the discovery of string field theory. Superstring theory and string field theory are the most discussed topics in scientific field now. To make public a part of it is one of the most revolutionized thought. Michio Kaku is striving his best to convey the ideas and new innovations in this field in simple and elegant way to the general public through his books and talk shows. Michio Kaku is the co-founder of String field theory that has the potential to rock the foundations of modern physics that could rapidly overturn the cherished but obsolete notions about our universe. It could replace the fundamentals of physics with new mathematics of breathtaking beauty and elegance.

Book Description
Stuporman is the first short story that I wrote in the twelfth grade. At the time, I probably did not realize that this spin-off of the Man of Steel was actually a simulacrum for myself as I went through public schools with progressively severe visual and hearing disabilities. Despite living in a body that refused to do what came so easily to others, I still felt, on some level, powerful.

Book Description
Recent advances in quantum technology - from quantum computers and simulators to secure communication and metrology - have not only opened up a whole new world of practical applications but also changed our understanding of quantum theory itself. This text, for the first time, introduces quantum theory entirely from this new perspective. It does away with the traditional approach to quantum theory as a theory of microscopic matter, and instead focuses on quantum theory as a framework for information processing. Accordingly, the emphasis is on concepts like measurement, probability, statistical correlations, and transformations, rather than on waves and particles. This affords a simple, direct route to quantum theory, all the way to some of its most fascinating conceptual issues. Since it requires only minimal mathematics and virtually no prior knowledge of physics, it is accessible to younger undergraduates and students of neighbouring disciplines. The text offers a unique blend of insights both into the physical foundations and the practical application of quantum theory. It begins with a discussion of experimental evidence that forces us to abandon the classical description and to critically re-examine such basic notions as measurement, probability, and state. The thorough investigation of these concepts leads to the alternative framework of quantum theory, set in complex Hilbert space. The requisite mathematics is developed carefully and always linked to its operational meaning. This part of the text culminates in an exploration of some of the most vexing foundational issues of quantum theory, regarding locality, non-contextuality, and realism. The second half of the text explains how the peculiar features of quantum theory may be harnessed to tackle information processing tasks that are intractable or even impossible classically. It provides the essential tools for understanding and designing the pertinent protocols, and discusses a diverse range of examples representative of current quantum technology. These include standard examples like the secure distribution of cryptographic keys, as well as less known applications such as entanglement-assisted metrology. Throughout the text there is a wealth of classroom-tested and at times unconventional exercises.
