When you insert a straight stick in water, you will find that the stick appears bent. Yet, this is in fact an optical illusion resulting from the refraction of light. Nature always hides her secret with attractive veiling. This may also be true for the motion of objects. Although everything around us appears to move in a continuous and lawful way, it is in all probability that their motion is discontinuous and random in reality as the microscopic phenomena reveal. This book presents a clear exposition of the intriguing idea of random discontinuous motion and its implications for quantum theory and relativity. Once you realize that motion is actually discontinuous and random, you may finally understand the mysterious quantum world, where an electron can pass through two slits at the same time. [The second edition has corrected all typesetting problems including those of formulas, and it also adds active links for TOC.]
Book reviews
Its very existence is at any rate, an excellent illustration of the extent to which physical data force us to depart from commonsense ideas when we try to depict reality “as it really is”.
---- Bernard d'Espagnat, theoretical physicist, philosopher of science, Templeton Prize 2009 Laureate, University of Paris, Orsay
The idea of using discontinuous motion as a realist interpretation of quantum mechanics is original.
---- Reviewer of Foundations of Physics
If it goes through, this would be an original and significant contribution to the debate over the nature of motion.
---- Reviewer of American Philosophical Quarterly
About the Author
Shan Gao graduated from the Institute of Electronics, Chinese Academy of Science in 1995. He is a theoretical physicist, whose major interests are in foundations of quantum theory, superluminal communication and quantum consciousness etc. His original ideas, including random discontinuous motion, quantum superluminal communication and quantum panpsychism, have been published in professional journals such as International Journal of Theoretical Physics, Foundations of Physics and Minds and Machines. He is the author of God Does Play Dice with the Universe and four other Chinese books.
Quantum Motion Unveiling the Mysterious Quantum World 3 Shan Gao
The book's basic idea is that at their most fundamental level both space and time are discrete, not continuous. Gao presents others' ideas (especially those of Roger Penrose) and his own in fairly clear language.However, the book suffers from three major drawbacks.
First of all, it is in desperate need of massive style-editing. I've learned to read badly-written books by scientists who are native speakers of English. Gao's English is very good for a non-native, but the text in its present state is really substandard.
Secondly, the text jumps quite blithely from amateur-level explanations to tensors and partial differential equations. So parts of the book can be read as a narrative while others have to be worked through very carefully.
This brings me to the third problem. In the kindle edition the formulas are so badly mangled that I've been unable to reconstruct many of them. Some characters don't come out at all, or appear as question marks; some formulas appear with a single character per line, so they may take up a whole page; the numbers of the formulas, which should appear in parentheses to the left of the formula, often appear inside the formula; subscripts sometimes get detached from the formula and appear in the next line of text.
In short, this is potentially a very interesting book, but still needs a lot of work.

Quantum Motion Unveiling the Mysterious Quantum World 3 Shan Gao Reviews
Yes, I liked it, but I couldn't understand all the concepts. I find it is not a book you can read and understand it without a lot of effort. More than just reading it you have to study it. I hope in the future I have time to study it.
