The Elegant Universe
by Brian Greene, 387 pgs, paperback
Amazon site
Overall Grade: B+
This was a pretty good book overall, but I probably would have gotten more out of it before having taken modern physics & if I hadn't been reading it will falling asleep every night. In any case, this book is about the physics behind string theory and its possible consequences for understanding cosmology and lots of other physics. Yeah, this book is a lot about physics. And I've had just enough physics to know that you really don't want to see the math Greene glosses over. Alright then, stay tuned for my review of the sequel to this book in the near future.
