Other Worlds - Paul Davies
space, Superspace and the Quantum Universe
KORTE INHOUD
Paul Davies is an Australian physicist and author of GOD AND THE NEW PHYSICS, Davies writes for the lay reader in simple language.
Even Einstein shied away from accepting its full implications when he claimed that 'God does not play dice'. And yet it is now clear that we do live in an unpredictable world ruled by chance, that spectators do help to create everything thei see, that space is a labyrinth of holes and tunnels and that our ideas about time are little more than superstition...There may even be countless alternative worlds existing in parallel to our own.

The result is an unforgettable and mind-stretching intellectual journey; it also makes us question everything we thought we knew about the world and space we live in.
