Quantum Mechanics is a strange but fundamental part of modern physics and we see the results of this theory with technology used in our daily lives. Quantum effects may also help to explain our consciousness and spiritual (paranormal) abilities. Quantum effects also lead to some very strange phenomena which seem impossible at first glance.
