In Search of the Multiverse: Parallel Worlds, Hidden Dimensions, and the Ultimate Quest for the Frontiers of Reality
Autor John PhD Gribbinen Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 iul 2010
Critical acclaim for John Gribbin
"The master of popular science."
—Sunday Times (London)
"Gribbin explains things very well indeed, and there's not an equation in sight."
—David Goodstein, The New York Times Book Review (on Almost Everyone's Guide to Science)
"Gribbin breathes life into the core ideas of complexity science, and argues convincingly that the basic laws, even in biology, will ultimately turn out to be simple."
—Nature magazine (on Deep Simplicity)
"Gribbin takes us through the basics [of chaos theory] with his customary talent for accessibility and clarity. [His] arguments are driven not by impersonal equations but by a sense of wonder at the presence in the universe and in nature of simple, self-organizing harmonies underpinning all structures, whether they are stars or flowers."
—Sunday Times (London) (on Deep Simplicity)
"In the true quantum realm, Gribbin remains the premier expositor of the latest developments."
—Booklist (on Schrödinger's Kittens and the Search for Reality)

Regular readers of the science shelf associate John Gribbin′s name with his highly readable physics books. This is for readers of quantum physics and cosmology books. Gribbin’s most well known for his classic bestseller In Search of Schrödinger′s Cat (Bksn: 36,787), the follow up Schrodinger′s Kittens and the Search for Reality (Bksn: 18,990), and The Search for Superstrings, Symmetry, and the Theory of Everything (Bksn: 13,019). His two most recent books along these lines are Deep Simplicity (6,266) and The Scientists (6,573).Notă biografică
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," "Science: A History, and Deep Simplicity." He trained as an astrophysicist at Cambridge University and is currently Visiting Fellow in Astronomy at the University of Sussex.
