If you all want a good, intuitive explanation of quantum mechanics that really captures the "deep" aspects of the subject (as opposed to the shallow, rote memorization style of McQuarrie, et al.), see: http://lesswrong.com/lw/r5/the_quantum_physics_sequence/ http://lesswrong.com/lw/r5/the_quantum_physics_sequence/ It's kind of weird and has some asides about consciousness and what not but other than that, it gives you a really good mindset for thinking about the subject.
