Brian Green's Elegant Universe is a fascinating journey through modern physics that is closer than ever to understanding how the universe works. The quantum world and Einstein's theory of relativity, the Kaluza-Klein hypothesis and additional measurements, the theory of superstrings and branes, the Big Bang and multiverses - this is not a complete list of discussed issues. Using clear analogies, the author translates the complex ideas of modern physics and mathematics into images that are understandable to everyone. Brian Green breaks the veil of secrecy from string theory to present the world with an 11-dimensional universe in which the fabric of space is torn and restored, and all matter is generated by the vibrations of microscopic strings.
