(4) 4-6 Basher Science series. Written by Dan Green. Advanced concepts in quantum physics are introduced on two-page spreads that feature pun-heavy explanations and an awkward manga-like character to represent the concept. The field-guide presentation covers theories ("wave particle duality"), particles ("neutrino"), forces ("electromagnetic force"), and hypotheticals ("quantum teleportation"). Those with knowledge of physics will be interested, others may be perplexed. A removable poster is included. Glos., ind.
