This book presents an excellent, relatively simple, explanation of quantum mechanics for the layperson. It explores the implications of Einstein's "spooky action at a distance" without wandering too far into mysticism. If you are interested in the possibilities of a "conscious universe" but turned-off by the idea of "manifesting your own reality", this is a book that you will enjoy. Half-way between Richard Dawkin's bleak arrogance and an angel on your shoulder...highly recommended!
