The Hidden Reality: Parallel Universes and the Deep Laws of the Cosmos di Brian Greene esplora la nostra più attuale comprensione scientifica dell'universo, la ''teoria delle stringhe'' che potrebbe contenere la chiave per unificare le leggi della natura e la nostra continua ricerca per saperne di più. C'era un tempo in cui ''universo'' significava tutto ciò che esiste. Tutto. Eppure, come dimostra lo straordinario libro del fisico Brian Greene, il nostro potrebbe essere solo un universo tra tanti, come infiniti riflessi in uno specchio. Ci porta in un'affascinante esplorazione di mondi paralleli, da un multiverso in cui un numero infinito di tuoi doppelganger sta leggendo questa frase, a vasti oceani di universi a bolle e persino multiversi fatti di matematica, mostrando quanta della vera natura della realtà potrebbe essere nascosta al loro interno. ''Se gli extraterrestri atterrassero domani e pretendessero di sapere di cosa è capace la mente umana. Date loro una copia di questo libro'' The New York Times Book Review ''Uno scrittore di eccezionale chiarezza e fascino. Ogni capitolo apre un livello dopo l'altro di realtà inimmaginabili che espandono la mente'' Oliver Sacks ''Il libro funge bene da introduzione al multiverso e aprirà gli occhi a molte persone'' John Gribbin Brian Greene è ben noto a molti fan come divulgatore della fisica teorica. È l'autore dei bestseller sulla teoria delle stringhe, The Elegant Universe, che è stato finalista per il Premio Pulitzer per la saggistica, The Fabric of the Cosmos e The Hidden Reality. Ha studiato ad Harvard e Oxford, ha insegnato sia ad Harvard che a Cornell ed è professore di fisica e matematica alla Columbia University dal 1996.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Brian Greene's The Hidden Reality: Parallel Universes and the Deep Laws of the Cosmos explores our most current scientific understanding of the universe, the 'string theory' that might hold the key to unifying nature's laws, and our continuing quest to know more. There was a time when 'universe' meant all there is. Everything. Yet, as physicist Brian Greene's extraordinary book shows, ours may be just one universe among many, like endless reflections in a mirror. He takes us on a captivating exploration of parallel worlds - from a multiverse where an infinite number of your doppelgangers are reading this sentence, to vast oceans of bubble universes and even multiverses made of mathematics - showing just how much of reality's true nature may be hidden within them. 'If extraterrestrials land tomorrow and demand to know what the human mind is capable of accomplishing . hand them a copy of this book' The New York Times Book Review 'A writer of exceptional clarity and charm . every chapter opens level after level of previously unimaginable, mind-expanding realities' Oliver Sacks 'The book serves well as an introduction to the multiverse and will open up many people's eyes' John Gribbin Brian Greene is well known to many fans as a populariser of theoretical physics. He is the author of the bestselling books about string theory, The Elegant Universe, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction, The Fabric of the Cosmos, and The Hidden Reality.
