Hiding in the Mirror

內容簡介

內容簡介 An exploration of mankind's fascination with worlds beyond our own-by the bestselling author of The Physics of Star Trek Lawrence Krauss -an international leader in physics and cosmology-examines our long and ardent romance with parallel universes, veiled dimensions, and regions of being that may extend tantalizingly beyond the limits of our perception. Krauss examines popular culture's current embrace (and frequent misunderstanding) of such topics as black holes, life in other dimensions, strings, and some of the more extraordinary new theories that propose the existence of vast extra dimensions alongside our own. BACKCOVER: "An astonishing and brilliantly written work of popular science." -Science a GoGo "A brilliant, thrilling book . . . You'll have so much fun reading that you'll hardly notice you're getting a primer on contemporary physics and cosmology." -Walter Isaacson, author of Benjamin Franklin: An American Life

各界推薦

各界推薦 【96年3月好讀推薦】長久以來，我們對另一個宇宙與其他形式存在的生命有無限熱切的想望。當今最傑出的理論物理學家和科普作家Krauss，以飽學而精巧的書寫，回應我們浪漫的想像。他縱觀柏拉圖以降多維空間在物理史上的角色，揭露多維空間、超越我們知覺極限的存在場域，也檢視黑洞、另次元的生命、弦論等大眾文化最喜愛、卻也經常誤解的概念。
