The Field And Quantum Particles

Here is a quote from a book I am currently read called, The Field, by Lynne McTaggart  It is in regards to quantum particles and a property called nonlocality.  I could attempt to explain this, but in many ways this is over my head.  So, instead, I'll let the book quote explain it more and if you want to read more on this, check the book out.

Quantum physicists had discovered a strange property in the subatomic world called 'nonlocality'.  This refers to the ability of a quantum entity such as an individual electron to influence another quantum particle instantaneously over any distance despite there being no exchange of force or energy. - Pg 11, The Field by Lynne McTaggart
