[Greene] develops one fresh new insight after another...In the great tradition of physicists writing for the masses, The Elegant Universe sets a standard that will be hard to beat. --George Johnson, The New York Times Book Review
In a rare blend of scientific insight and writing as elegant as the theories it explains, Brian Greene, one of the world's leading string theorists, peels away the layers of mystery surrounding string theory to reveal a universe that consists of 11 dimensions where the fabric of space tears and repairs itself, and all matter-from the smallest quarks to the most gargantuan supernovas-is generated by the vibrations of microscopically tiny loops of energy.
Green uses everything from an amusement park ride to ants on a garden hose to illustrate the beautiful yet bizarre realities that modern physics is unveiling. Dazzling in its brilliance, unprecedented in its ability to both illuminate and entertain, The Elegant Universe is a tour de force of science writing-a delightful, lucid voyage through modern physics that brings us closer than ever to understanding how the universe works.

2009-11-09 读过 真是很好的科普书,此外书中还有作者自己研究中的一些经历。既长见识又能励志的好书。

用两个月的一人食时间读完了。弦理论毕竟未臻成熟,后半部分没有物理学背景几乎不可能懂(一堆技术细节)。Anyway,终极理论这种野心总让人感到不安,就像梅尔基亚德斯的羊皮卷上的预言一样。

需要反复阅读,多维时空和多元宇宙很感兴趣。

几乎没用公式就能把弦理论讲得这么简明易懂也是够厉害了

听完。 相当震撼,在你美,讲弦论科普居然要从牛顿力学开始…… 有一句“如果不能应用到物理发现,弦论和DnD有什么差别”(大意)听得大笑。好象是cite谁的话,但没查到/不记得了。 还有“弦论没有可调参数”,呵呵,真的不是暂时没有实验证伪所以不必调参吗。
