Description
Carlo Rovelli's groundbreaking book explores the nature of reality, delving into the mysteries of space and time. From ancient philosophers to modern theories of quantum gravity, Rovelli takes us on a journey to understand the deep texture of our universe.
Through his thought-provoking narrative, Rovelli reveals how our understanding of reality has evolved over centuries, from the atomic to the cosmic scale. He invites us to imagine a world where black holes await, spacetime is composed of grains, and infinity is redefined.
Translated by Simon Carnell and Erica Segre, this book offers a fresh perspective on the universe, one that challenges our perceptions and expands our understanding of the cosmos.
