The Hidden Reality
Saw this book in the new books section of the library, but I don't think it is brand new...

by Briane Greene

http://www.amazon.com/Hidden-Reality-Parallel-Universes-Cosmos/dp/0307265633

>>>>a partial review>>>>



Greene discusses all of the current hot topics in cosmology: brane-worlds, the multiverse, the holographic universe, unseen parallel worlds in dimensions separated by millimeters, our universe as a super-advanced computer program, the essentially hidden nature of reality. These are topics that have been discussed in other books but seldom with the passion for communication and clarity of thought that Greene exhibits in this one. The topics here are abstract concepts that exist at the very boundaries of human thought but Greene somehow manages to bring them down to earth. Even if you don't understand everything, the scientific vistas that Greene offers in this superb book are breathtaking in their intellectual beauty. You will find your personal horizons exponentially expanded. The Hidden Reality is replete with excellent illustrations that illuminate the material and are fun to look at. If this kind of science intrigues you then you will love this book. Brian Greene has written another masterpiece in a difficult genre.

I haven't gotten very far with it yet... but it looks exceedingly interesting!

1. Kimmers, this sounds very interesting...I'm going to check the
library to see if they have it. I love this stuff! I intuitively feel that these types of theories are right on, and that we're just on the verge or cusp of understanding. Thanks for posting this!
