Superstrings
Titel
Superstrings
Beschrijving
Geared to the layperson, a clear, concise, non-mathematical explanation of the "Theory of Everything" and its profound implications is followed by transcripts of interviews with most of the physicists involved in its development.
Davies is always on point in stating the premises of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics and how String Theory alluded to uniting the two but needed Superstring Theory to progress. He does an exceptional job of interviewing those prominent in the field as well those 'not so enthused' by the final product sought. Davies points out the strengths of the theory as narrated by the researchers during his leading/guiding questions so as to clarify their intentions to us (the readers) as well as subjective interpretations of where the math, in this 'oh so new' research, leads them to render interpretations as to just what it is telling us about the substate of the universe in which we live.
