In this book, Brian Greene recounts the scientific story and the human struggle behind the search for the final theory. It explores revolutionary ideas such as new dimensions hidden in the fabric of space, black holes that transform into elementary particles, and giant universes that exchange with tiny ones. With authority and charm, Greene manages to make accessible some of the most sophisticated concepts ever conceived, bringing us closer to understanding how the universe works.
Brian Randolph Greene is an American physicist known for his research on string theory. He is a professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University, director of its center for theoretical physics, and the chairman of the World Science Festival, which he co-founded in 2008. Greene co-discovered mirror symmetry, relating two different Calabi–Yau manifolds. He also described the flop transition, a mild form of topology change, and the conifold transition, a more severe transformation of space, showing that topology can smoothly change in string theory.
