Download Dreams of a Final Theory: The Scientist's Search for the Ultimate Laws of Nature AudioBook Free
This is the story of your grand scientific search: the quest for a unifying theory of nature--one that can explain pushes as different as the cohesion inside the atom and the gravitational tug between the sun and the earth. Writing with amazing elegance and clarity, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Steven Weinberg retraces the steps that have led modern researchers from relativity theory and quantum mechanics to the idea of superstrings and the theory that our world may coexist with others. On the way, he voices the questions that are always present: Why does each reason of just how nature works indicate other, deeper explanations? Why are the best theories not only rational but beautiful? And what implications will your final theory have for our school of thought and religious beliefs? Intellectually daring, abundant with anecdote and aphorism, Dreams of your final Theory launches us into a new cosmos and helps us make sense of whatever we find there.
