The revolution in twentieth century physics has changed the way we
think about space, time and matter and our own place in the
universe. It has offered answers to many of the big questions of
existence, such as the ultimate nature of things and the how the
universe came into being. It has undermined our belief in a
Newtonian mechanistic universe and a deterministic future, posing
questions about parallel universes, time-travel and the origin and
end of everything. At the same time we have witnessed amazing
attempts at unification so that physicists are able to contemplate
the discovery of a single 'theory of everything' from which we
could derive the masses and types of all particles and their
interactions. This book tells the story of these discoveries and
the people who made them, largely through the work of Nobel Prize
winning physicists.
