Step forward the quantum computer, which harnesses the power and complexity of the atomic realm, and may be useful in solving humanity's greatest challenges from climate change, to global starvation, to incurable diseases. Humanity's next great technological achievement already promises to be every bit as revolutionary as the transistor and microchip once were. Its unprecedented gains in computing power and unique ability to simulate the physical universe herald advances that could change every aspect of our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCorporations and whole nations are betting on quantum computing, hoping to exploit its power to design more efficient vehicles, create life-saving new drugs, and streamline industries to revolutionise the economy. But this is only the beginning. Quantum computers could allow us to finally create nuclear fusion reactors that produce clean, renewable energy without radioactive waste or threats of meltdown. They could help us crack the biological processes that generate natural, cheap fertiliser and enable us to feed the world's growing populations. And they could unravel the fiendishly difficult protein folding that lies at the heart of previously incurable diseases such as Alzheimer's, motor neurone disease, and Parkinson's, helping us to live longer, healthier lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTold with Kaku's signature clarity and enthusiasm, \u003cem\u003eQuantum Supremacy\u003c\/em\u003e is the story of this exciting frontier and the race to claim humanity's future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46172197421292,"sku":"9780141999456","price":24.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780141999456.jpg?v=1739250003","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/quantum-supremacy-by-michio-kaku-9780141999456","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
