Rovelli is a charming, thought-provoking tour guideamp: amp: apos: (Manjit Kumar Prospect)Do space and time truly exist` What is reality made of` Can we understand its deep texture`Scientist Carlo Rovelli has spent his whole life exploring these questions and pushing the boundaries of what we know. In this mind-expanding book, he shows how our understanding of reality has changed throughout centuries, from Democritus to loop quantum gravity. Taking us on a wondrous journey, he invites us to imagine a whole new world where black holes are waiting to explode, spacetime is made up of grains, and infinity does not exist -- a vast universe still largely undiscovered.
