This story begins from my Early childhood, I was not very keen into science I was just a kid who was bullied by everyone in my school, one day I was just visiting National Geographic Channel and I had seen Cosmos : A space time Odessy for the first time in my life it was 2014 and this was the first time I was seeing Neil deGrasse Tyson for the first time and after that I was soo much boomed, never in my life I had seen science as such like that, after that my interests in science began to grew and now when I read this book I always get reminded why I started science. . .

Astrophysics for People in a Hurry

I was recently watching Ranveer Alahbadia's podcast with poly scientist and indian historian, Abhijit Chavda. After that deep talk I had encountered a video of Abhijit Chavda on quantum physics books, as I was greatly inspired by quantum physics as a subject I thought of giving it a try and this was the most beneficial thing I have ever done I can tell you.

Got interested about Quantum physics

Decade after decade scientists have continued to return to the double-slit experiment to help them answer questions about the quantum mechanics of reality - it continues to expose and untangle the deepest mysteries of the universe. Through Two Doors At Once celebrates physics at its most elegantly simple and profound. Ananthaswamy travels around the world and through history, introducing readers to visionary contemporary physicists such as Roger Penrose and Leonard Susskind who are still developing this experiment, as well as revolutionaries like Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr.

The intellectual adventure story of the "double-slit" experiment, showing how a sunbeam split into two paths first challenged our understanding of light and then the nature of reality itself--and continues to almost two hundred years later. Many of science's greatest minds have grappled with the simple yet elusive "double-slit" experiment. Thomas Young devised it in the early 1800s to show that light behaves like a wave, and in doing so opposed Isaac Newton. Nearly a century later, Albert Einstein showed that light comes in quanta, or particles, and the experiment became key to a fierce debate between Einstein and Niels Bohr over the nature of reality. Richard Feynman held that the double slit embodies the central mystery of the quantum world. Decade after decade, hypothesis after hypothesis, scientists have returned to this ingenious experiment to help them answer deeper and deeper questions about the fabric of the universe. How can a single particle behave both like a particle and a wave? Does a particle exist before we look at it, or does the very act of looking create reality? Are there hidden aspects to reality missing from the orthodox view of quantum physics? Is there a place where the quantum world ends and the familiar classical world of our daily lives begins, and if so, can we find it? And if there's no such place, then does the universe split into two each time a particle goes through the double slit? With his extraordinarily gifted eloquence, Anil Ananthaswamy travels around the world and through history, down to the smallest scales of physical reality we have yet fathomed. Through Two Doors at Once is the most fantastic voyage you can take.
