Internationally renowned, award-winning theoretical physicist, New York Times bestselling writer of A World from Nothing, and excited advocate for reason, Lawrence Krauss instructs the dramatic tale of the discovery of the concealed world of simple fact - a grand poetic vision of nature - and how we find our place within it. In the start there is light. But more than this, there is gravity. After that, all hell broke loose...In A World from Nothing, Krauss uncovered how our whole universe could come up from nothing. Now, he reveals what that something - simple fact - is. And, the truth is not what we should think or sense - it's weird, crazy, and counterintuitive; it's covered beneath every day experience; and its inner workings seem even stranger than the idea that something will come from nothing. In the landmark, unprecedented work of medical history, Krauss leads us to the furthest reaches of space and time, to scales so small they can be invisible to microscopes, to the delivery and rebirth of light, and into the natural causes that govern our presence. His unique mixture of demanding research and engaging storytelling invites us into the lives and thoughts of the remarkable, creative scientists who have helped to unravel the sudden fabric of simple fact - with reason somewhat than superstition and dogma. Krauss has himself been a dynamic participant in this effort, and he knows many of them well. The Greatest Storyline troubles us to re-envision ourselves and our place within the world, as it appears that "God" does indeed play dice with the world. Within the incisive design of his scintillating essays for The New Yorker, Krauss celebrates the greatest intellectual adventure ever undertaken - to understand why were within a world where fact is stranger than fiction.
