I would cut & paste, like the first guy, but instead, I'll simply post his "credit goes to...", as he seems to have "forgotton" to do it.
Credit for the above answer goes to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mechanics
As for a detailed explaination, there are literally hundreds of books on the topic of Quantum Theory. Your best bet, for accurate information, would be to look up some websites on the subject or invest in a few books about it.
A book I suggest for the beginner is "Alice in Quantumland", by Robert Gilmore. It goes a little way to explaining the fundamentals, through a parody of "Alice in Wonderland".
It's a fun, interesting read!
He, he, he, thanks for the bad rating, megalomaniac! Truth hurts, eh? (smile)

Here's one of my simple explanations:-
My wife says i am bald as a coot. But when my wife leaves the room, i have a mullet down to my bum.
I am interested in this subject. But i don't understand what makes the quantum physics happen. I look forward to the answers you receive.

Quantum mechanics is a fundamental branch of physics that supersedes classical mechanics at the atomic and subatomic levels. It provides the underlying mathematical framework for many fields of physics and chemistry, including condensed matter physics, atomic physics, molecular physics, computational chemistry, quantum chemistry, particle physics, and nuclear physics.Quantum mechanics is a subset of quantum field theory and quantum physics in general, which, along with general relativity, is one of the pillars of modern physics.
