A perfect present for the golfer with an enquiring mind

[18 Holes.org]

The simple solution to the 'What can I get them for their birthday' problem.


 18 Holes of Quantum Golf invites you to take a tour of the Universe in the
company of two lifelong friends, Bob and Alec, who meet several times a year to
play a round of golf for their personal trophy. In the clubhouse before starting
the match, they meet an old friend who introduces Alec to one of his professors
when he studied at University. Once out on the course this chance meeting leads
them to a discussion of the world around us and how much our ever increasing
knowledge  of it has enhanced and prolonged our lives as well as giving us the
vast range of high-tech wonders that today we take for granted.

'18 Holes of Quantum Golf is a story that shows the true value of friendship.
It's a book that encourages passion toward one's goals in life and I love how
the author used two senior citizens playing a round of golf to highlight the
importance of caring, friendship, love, marriage and, most importantly, to
explain how science has enabled us to gain a better understanding about the
world around us. Also, I loved the addition of humour in between the lines of
the story which adds to the point that the author is explaining. As a lover of
history and a science enthusiast, tho' not a golfer, this was a delightful read.
The book will be educational for people who want an easy introduction to the
growth of science and the many impacts it has had on our modern world.' - 
Reviewed in Online Book Club - February 2022.

The golfers in front of Bob and Alec are unfamiliar with the course which gives
them plenty of time to chat between shots. Their chats combine to tell the story
of the growth of modern science from its early day's, 2,800 years ago in Ancient
Greece, to the present day and The Large Hadron Collider. They describe in
simple terms the major contributions by exceptional thinkers such as Aristotle,
Galileo, Newton and Einstein, as well as by many other not so well known
scientists. 18 Holes is a compelling tale told by Bob and Alec in their normal
everyday language without any technical jargon for the reader to puzzle over.
