Although quantum physics and relativity have been our basis for understanding the universe for the past century, most introductory physics courses still nearly exclude them. This talk presents ways of teaching quantum physics conceptually, i.e. without algebra. Such an approach is appropriate not only for non-scientists but also as an introduction to quantum physics for scientists. Topics will include the quantum states of hydrogen, quantum uncertainties, measurement in quantum physics, quantum entanglement, the 1991 experiment of Zou, Wang, and Mandel on the non-local effect of observation, and the position-entanglement experiment (the spin concept is not needed here) suggested by Horne and Zeilinger and performed in one version in 1990 by Rarity and Tapster.
