Book Reviews of The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory
Book Review: 4.5 stars. Fascinating!
Summary: 4 Stars
In "The Elegant Universe," Brian Greene presents general relativity, quantum mechanics and string theory with great ethusiasm and clear descriptions. As the book progresses the subject matter becomes a bit more dense, but Greene regularly seeks to provide explanations and examples that the average reader can understand. While one might not grasp everything here, "The Elegant Universe" presents so much fascinating information that my view of the world has changed for the better.
Definitely worth a second read!
