Uncertainty, Einstein, Heisenberg, Bohr and the Struggle for the Soul of Science by David Lindley

A seemingly unrelated book relative to planning and designingsmall cities and towns; however, not so fast. The “uncertainty principle” presents a concept of universal usefulness; the bookhelps understand how “thinkers” think; a useful skill. As noted in the review by Scientific American, for those believers in“quantum” theories, “one can extract one bit of information only at the price of losing another.” And, measurements distort the items measured. These ideas actually apply to may city issues.
