It is a real nice (and quick) read on some of the key principles of quantum mechanics which is supposed to be the most difficult field of study out there. But what makes is difficult is not the principles but the explanation of those ideas in a common language. A lot of these principle work out of the purview of a regular observation capacity which makes it more difficult to find a similar example to explain the phenomenon. When they say that the particle was spinning up or down and the wave was travelling partially in the future and in the past, it is incomprehensible for human faculties.
But just because it is not easy to understand doesn't mean it is not happening. The universe exists even if we don't have a direct observation into it as a whole or in parts. And, the best part is that this field is expanding rapidly with the higher sophistications of instruments that can help run the tests at the quantum level. So, we can expect that in the future we'll have better explanation in what we call as "worldly terms".
You don't need a doctorate to read but it will be a bit difficult to understand specially as a standalone book if you are not privy to some other fields of science and maths which support quantum mechanics.
And, yeah, don't be bothered by multiverse :)
Peace
