概要
“I see physics everywhere,” Karmela Padavic-Callaghan writes. “It offers itself to me when I try to make sense of all the paths my life did and did not take, it reassures me when I try to reconcile all the identities that I feel describe me.” Born in Croatia in 1991, Karmela grew up against the backdrop of the Yugoslav wars. They grew to love science and hair metal, and they began longing to see more of the world. At age 16, they received an offer to study at a boarding school in New York, setting them on a path to a physics PhD.
Now a science writer in New York, Karmela uses physics to meditate on building a life in a new country, on being nonbinary in a field dominated by cishet men, and on cause, effect, future, and destiny. Each chapter examines a moment in Karmela's life through the lens of a physics concept. Knot theory becomes a lens for the story of Karmela visiting a Croatian healer. Ultracold atom labs lead to a meditation on societal expectations that women be unfailingly warm and nurturing. And the workings of an electron microscope become a framework for Karmela's evolving relationship with cosmetics as they realized they are nonbinary.
Taking us from Croatia to New York, from quantum computing to Queen, Entangled States offers readers a unique and unforgettable journey—and shows how the world of physics and the world of humanity illuminate one another.
批評家のレビュー
“Padavic-Callaghan’s prose is vulnerable and sharp . . . They push the boundaries of what a science book can be . . . An unconventional take on physics that stings like an exposed nerve and shines with humanity.”
—Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
“Entangled States is a stunning and invigorating memoir at the intersections of science, gender, place, and wonder. I was awed by Karmela Padavic-Callaghan’s ability to engage elevated physics theory alongside such gorgeous and thoughtful prose, and to meditate so intimately on the particularities of a human life alongside explanations for our universal atomic experiences. A truly remarkable debut.”
—Raechel Anne Jolie, author of Rust Belt Femme
“With Entangled States, Karmela Padavic-Callaghan offers readers an utterly unique journey into the quantum life—one where a love of quantum physics helps a queer immigrant make sense of who they are and make meaning of the cosmos. Come for the analysis of Freddie Mercury’s farewell album, stay for the clear, accessible explanations of next-generation quantum information science. Padavic-Callaghan has written an inspiring book about physics that beautifully centers the importance of being true to yourself.”
—Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, author of The Disordered Cosmos: A Journey into Dark Matter, Spacetime, and Dreams Deferred
“Padavic-Callaghan is the ideal shepherd for today’s science reader eager to feel through the fields, peaks, and valleys of quantum physics. A lyrical study of temporal frames and the capacious interactions coupled with a powerful self-inquiry into the personal and cultural cost of achieving academic success as a late-twentieth-century queer immigrant. Entangled States is a portrait of survival through the systems of irreducibility, illustrating the probabilities of different, dare I say, exciting outcomes in a powerfully lived life.”
