Brian Greene's The Hidden Reality: Parallel Universes and the Deep
Laws of the Cosmos explores our most current scientific
understanding of the universe, the 'string theory' that might hold
the key to unifying nature's laws, and our continuing quest to know
more. There was a time when 'universe' meant all there is.
Everything. Yet, as physicist Brian Greene's extraordinary book
shows, ours may be just one universe among many, like endless
reflections in a mirror. He takes us on a captivating exploration
of parallel worlds - from a multiverse where an infinite number of
your doppelgangers are reading this sentence, to vast oceans of
bubble universes and even multiverses made of mathematics - showing
just how much of reality's true nature may be hidden within them.
'If extraterrestrials land tomorrow and demand to know what the
human mind is capable of accomplishing ... hand them a copy of this
book' The New York Times Book Review 'A writer of exceptional
clarity and charm ... every chapter opens level after level of
previously unimaginable, mind-expanding realities' Oliver Sacks
'The book serves well as an introduction to the multiverse and will
open up many people's eyes' John Gribbin Brian Greene is well known
to many fans as a populariser of theoretical physics. He is the
author of the bestselling books about string theory, The Elegant
Universe, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for
nonfiction, The Fabric of the Cosmos, and The Hidden Reality.
Educated at Harvard and Oxford, he has taught at both Harvard and
Cornell and has been Professor of Physics and Mathematics at
Columbia University since 1996.
