John Gribbin's ''In Search of the Multiverse'' takes
us on an extraordinary journey through the most
fundamental questions in science, exploring the
frontiers of reality itself. What are the boundaries of
our universe? Could there be other worlds - do we
actually live in a multiverse? Will we meet another 'us'
in a different reality? Or are alternative worlds
parallel but separate? John Gribbin guides us through
the different theories about multiverses, along the way
explaining the every latest thinking about gravity,
about time and multiple dimensions, about quantum
theory, about matter itself - and even the mind-bending
possibility that one day we may be creating universes
ourselves. John Gribbin is the best guide to the big
questions of science. And there is no bigger question
than our search for the multiverse. ''The master of
popular science writing''. (''Sunday Times''). ''In this
universe at least, it's brilliant''. (''BBC Focus'').
''Numerous books on the subject have appeared in the
past few years, but Gribbin's stands out for
succinctness and readability.Long renowned as one of
Britain's finest popular science writers, Gribbin
combines expert knowledge with straightforward,
no-frills exposition''. (''Scotland on Sunday''). John
Gribbin is one of today's greatest writers of popular
science and the author of bestselling books, including
''In Search of Schrodinger's Cat'', ''Stardust'',
S''cience: A History'' and ''Deep Simplicity''. Gribbin
trained as an astrophysicist at Cambridge University and
is currently Visiting Fellow in Astronomy at the
University of Sussex. |
