… When the photon reaches my eye, it must decide what happened to it along the journey, but this decision appears purely random and I have no effect upon it. The best way physicists have found to describe what is going on is to say particles, such as a photons, behave according to...

… like a character in an enormous video game. The character might think it was free to act, and its actions would appear random. Yet from the moment the player clicked the button to start the game, every action the character takes is determined by a preprogrammed set of rules. Thi...

…ode breakers. Up to this point, code- breaking had been the domain of linguists able to see word patterns in apparently random sets of letters. The arrival of electro-mechanical machines made this method redundant, and code-breaking had become the domain of mathematical minds. Th...
