這本書不是給你答案，而是給你另一雙眼睛，從不同的視角重新詮釋藝術。── 張慶瑞 教授｜量子科技權威、獲選為全球「量子百強」（Quantum 100）跟著科學家走進美術館，探索世界百大經典名畫裡的物理奇蹟理性與感性的化學反應，將顛覆你對世界的想像★榮獲韓國「世宗圖書獎」★★入選韓國「優秀科學圖書」★達文西《蒙娜麗莎》真神祕，應用量子力學產生兆赫波，就能解謎？梵谷的《向日葵》日漸枯萎，兇手居然是量子力學效應引發的變化？畢卡索《亞維農的少女》超衝擊，竟然正好類比量子力學的疊加態？雷諾瓦《煎餅磨坊的舞會》好熱鬧，背景音樂是光線量子化後的華爾滋？藝術與物理這兩個領域看似毫無交集，其實就如同雙生鏡像，圍繞著同一個核心議題──光線。科學家渴望找到什麼是光，不斷以各種方法分析光的本質和特性，進而推動量子力學的出現；繪畫家想在畫布上呈現出光影的幻變絕美，因而持續地自我思辨與成長，催生出各式流派。原來，藝術與科學的關係，遠比你想得還要緊密交織！讀懂藝術史，也可以理解量子力學的物理奧祕；理解物理學的祕密，就能夠掌握名畫中的玄機，例如：赫姆霍茲的「生理光學」研究，開啟通往量子力學的大門；正是這項研究讓莫內等印象派畫家摒棄傳統，轉而捕捉光線在物體表面跳動的光波與色彩。愛因斯坦發表的「相對論」，讓超現實主義畫家深受衝擊，進而影響達利運用想像力，畫出扭曲的時間與空間，成就許多反轉潮流與顛覆時代的作品。本書以物理學生家的視角，重新解析名畫與畫家的人生。在欣賞上百幅名畫的同時，也能輕鬆學習與量子力學相關的測不準原理、石墨烯、熵、菲涅耳定律、重力波等物理法則。淺顯易懂的說明，連接起「物理」與「藝術」兩座看似遙不可及的山峰，提供一個觀察世界、欣賞藝術的全新角度――我們眼中的世界，都因為光而存在！藝術家畫出光的魔法，而物理學家研究光學現象。我們看不見的世界，萬物皆在跳舞！藝術家描繪出動感；而物理學家看見粒子的微觀運動。

自然與地景文學復興的經典之作繁體中文版首度出版《心向群山》作者羅伯特．麥克法倫：「這本書將觀鳥行為變成一種神聖儀式，無疑是二十世紀非虛構作品的傑作。」德國名導韋納・荷索推崇備至：「你看得出來，貝克已經完全進入一隻遊隼的存在狀態。而我拍一部電影的時候就是這樣。」英國企鵝出版公司「國家圖書館」系列收錄美國《紐約書評」》經典系列收錄澳洲作曲家勞倫斯．英格利希為《遊隼》創作音樂專輯德國導演韋納．荷索電影學校將《遊隼》列為必讀書單《遊隼》是貝克將追尋遊隼的十年經歷濃縮而成的日誌體散文，他每日穿行於英格蘭東部埃塞克斯郡的鄉野、溼地與河口，鉅細靡遺地記錄他與遊隼相遇的每個瞬間。此書並非傳統的鳥類觀察，也不是生態導覽，更非環保文學，而是充滿哲思、關懷與自省的深度探索。作者以專注、誠實的筆觸，拒絕擬人化與感傷，創造出獨特的自然文學作品。遊隼在他詩意般的語言中，被刻畫成超越人類，又深深呼應人類靈魂深處的存在。日復一日，貝克書寫季節、天氣與光影；全副身心跟隨著遊隼的飛行、目光與殺戮，意欲化身為鷹，卻困在人類的臭皮囊中。作者不斷與自己脆弱的身體、衰敗的環境、難以言喻的孤獨抗衡。他在字裡行間留下對死亡與自由的雙重凝視。讀者隨著他的描寫，被引領至一種奇特的「反人類」視角——人不再是衡量自然的標準，而是自然的破壞者。《遊隼》自1967年出版以來，便被視為英國自然文學的巔峰之作。《心向群山》作者羅伯・麥克法倫稱其無疑是「二十世紀非虛構作品的傑作」。它啟發了無數寫作者與藝術家，也深深影響了當代對於「自然書寫」與「人類中心視角」的反思與批判。
