Brian Greene is one of the leading physicists of our time, the author of 'The Elegant Universe,' inviting us on another amazing journey into the depths of the cosmos, which will help us see the surrounding reality from a completely different perspective. The book explores fundamental questions related to classical physics, quantum mechanics, and cosmology. What is space? Why does time have a direction? Is time travel possible? What role do symmetry and entropy play in the evolution of the cosmos? What lies behind dark matter? Can the Universe exist without space and time? Greene thoroughly examines Newton's worldview, Mach's ideas, presents Einstein's theory of relativity, and analyzes its contradictions with quantum mechanics. The book discusses the problems of decoherence and teleportation in quantum mechanics. Many aspects of the inflationary model of the Universe, the first fractions of a second after the Big Bang, the horizon problem, and the formation of galaxies are analyzed. A lot of attention is paid to the new modern approach to explaining the world through string theory/M-theory. Greene shows that our world is significantly different from what common sense has accustomed us to. The author captivates all of us, regardless of our level of education and scientific background, on an enlightening journey to new layers of reality that modern physics reveals beneath the surface of the familiar world.
