In "Beyond Weird," Philip Ball reframes quantum mechanics not as a set of paradoxical, "spooky" phenomena, but as a fundamental theory of information and knowledge that defines the limits of what can be observed. The book dismantles common misconceptions like wave-particle duality and Schrödinger's cat, proposing that the classical world emerges from quantum foundations through environmental interaction, or decoherence.
