«I numeri dell'universo. Le costanti di natura e la teoria del tutto» is an essay by John D. Barrow, published by Mondadori in paperback.
Barrow explores the numbers that govern the universe, such as the speed of light, gravity, magnetism or the mass of particles, and asks why they have those values and not others. He also considers whether the constants of nature are fixed or evolve over time, as a boundary between what we know and what we ignore about the cosmos.
Italian edition of 326 pages, translated by Tullio Cannillo from the original The Constants of Nature (2002); part of the Oscar saggi collection (no. 769).
A book for readers of popular science, cosmology and physics interested in the foundations of the universe.
