Quantum Mechanics. What?

I have always been fascinated learning about the nature of reality, its elements and their relationships to each other, and about how things work in the word. Naturally, such an interest pulls one into the study of physics. I have always considered physics an esoteric field, understood only by old guys with frizzy white hair shooting out from their scalps, as though having received a massive elect
