"String Theory takes on one of modern physics' most complicated and enthralling candidates for the theory of everything possible universal answer to all applied sciences. By examining some of the fundamentals of physics such as electricity, magnetism, and light, as well as how these elements were discovered, the book analyzes how scientists have built the still unproven theory and seeks to effectively explore all the scientific opportunities its possible existence could provide"--Amazon.com.
unraveling the mysteries of the universe's hidden dimensions
Randall, Lisa
2005
Examines the world of warped, hidden dimensions that impact everything in the universe, explains how scientists are trying to prove the existence of these dimensions, and explores many unanswered questions related to the concept.
A comprehensive guide to string theory that covers equations of motion, symmetries and worldsheet currents, string quantization, conformal field theory, compactification and T-duality, black holes, and other related topics.
An introduction to string theory, a unifying theory that encompasses gravity and quantum mechanics. Presents the theory's core ideas and concepts in plain English with a minimum of math.
the rise of string theory, the fall of a science, and what comes next
Smolin, Lee
2006
Theoretical physicist Lee Smolin argues that physics has lost its way over the last fifty years, pointing to the fact that nothing new has been learned about the laws of physics since the 1970s as proof that the science of physics is dying out.
string theory and the illusion of intelligent design
Susskind, Leonard
2006
Presents an examination of the intellectual debate between physicists on the nature of the universe, including discussions of string theory, the Anthropic Principle, and more.
