About this title

Synopsis

Everything is connected…

We'’re living in the midst of a scientific revolution that’'s captured the general public’'s attention and imagination. The aim of this new revolution is to develop a “theory of everything”— -- a set of laws of physics that will explain all that can be explained, ranging from the tiniest subatomic particle to the universe as a whole. Here, readers will learn the ideas behind the theories, and their effects upon our world, our civilization, and ourselves.
