<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In this sweeping survey, acclaimed science writers Paul Davies and John Gribbin provide a complete overview of advances in the study of physics that have revolutionized modern science. From the weird world of quarks and the theory of relativity to the latest ideas about the birth of the cosmos, the authors find evidence for a massive paradigm shift. Developments in the studies of black holes, cosmic strings, solitons, and chaos theory challenge commonsense concepts of space, time, and matter, and demand a radically altered and more fully unified view of the universe.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>PAUL DAVIES</b> is Director of the Beyond Center at Arizona State University and the bestselling author of more than twenty books.
