The Greatest Story Ever Told - So Far

Meer over het boek

In A Universe from Nothing, Lawrence Krauss explained how our entire universe could arise from nothing. Now he reveals what that something -- reality -- is. And, reality is not what we think or sense -- it's weird, wild, and counterintuitive; it's hidden beneath everyday experience; and its inner workings seem even stranger than the idea that something can come from nothing. In a work of scientific history, Krauss leads us to the furthest reaches of space and time, to scales so small they are invisible to microscopes, to the birth and rebirth of light, and into the natural forces that govern our existence. His unique blend of research and storytelling invites us into the lives and minds of the scientists who have helped to unravel the unexpected fabric of reality -- with reason rather than superstition and dogma. Krauss has himself been an active participant in this effort, and he knows many of them well. The Greatest Story challenges us to re-envision ourselves and our place within the universe, as it appears that "God" does play dice with the universe
