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.
