The Role of Electrons in Computers and Human Beings
A disclaimer first. I am no physicist, particle or otherwise. The only knowledge I have of the subject of subatomic particles like the electron comes from what I learned during my years at university and then graduate school, plus a healthy amount of leisure reading on quantum physics outside of my academic studies. My expertise is in the biological sciences, specifically micro and molecular biology, not physics. That said I believe I know enough to address this topic in at least some depth. I also would very much appreciate and welcome any corrections or additions by actual physicists with real expertise in the area.
