Dreams of a Final Theory: The Scientist's Search for the Ultimate Laws of Nature
ISBN: 9780679744085 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Nobel Prize-winning physicist and bestselling author of The First Three Minutes describes the grand quest for a unifying theory of nature--one that can explain forces as different as the cohesion inside the atom and the gravitational tug between the sun and Earth. Wirting with dazzling elegance and clarity, he retraces the steps that have led modern scientists from relativity and quantum mechanics to the notion of super-strings and the idea that our universe may coexist with others.
But Weinberg asks as many questions as he answers, among them: Why does each explanation of the... The Nobel Prize-winning physicist and bestselling author of The First Three Minutes describes the grand quest for a unifying theory of nature--...
