This book presents key ideas of quantum mechanics. The paradoxes of the quantum world are explained with examples of dispute between Einstein and Bohr. A collection of simple drawings illustrates the key concepts: wave/particle dualism, non-locality, and quantum jumps. The foundations of quantum physics were the source of a new hypothesis about the origin of Life. The backbone of this hypothesis is that a nonlocal link at the quantum level exits between all living organisms. This liaison has been developed many eons ago, since the origin of life in the world´s oceans.
