The Hidden Reality: Parallel Universes and the Deep Laws of the Cosmos
Brian Greene
The bestselling author of The Elegant Universe and The Fabric of the Cosmos tackles perhaps the most mind-bending question in modern physics and cosmology: Is our universe the only universe? There was a time when "universe" meant all there is. Everything. Yet, a number of theories are converging on the possibility that our universe may be but one among many parallel universes populating a vast multiverse. Here, Briane Greene, one of our foremost physicists and science writers, takes us on a breathtaking journey to a multiverse comprising an endless series of big bangs, a multiverse with duplicates of every one of us, a multiverse populated by vast sheets of spacetime, a multiverse in which all we consider real are holographic illusions, and even a multiverse made purely of math--and reveals the reality hidden within each. Using his trademark wit and precision, Greene presents a thrilling survey of cutting-edge physics and confronts the inevitable question: How can fundamental science progress if great swaths of reality lie beyond our reach? The Hidden Reality is a remarkable adventure through a world more vast and strange than anything we could have imagined.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Brian GreenePublisher: VintagePublished: 11/01/2011ISBN: 9780307278128Pages: 443Weight: 0.95lbsSize: 8.04h x 5.29w x 0.93dReview Citations: New York Times Book Review 12/11/2011 pg. 44Library Journal 03/01/2013
