About this listen

In Three Roads to Quantum Gravity, Lee Smolin provides an accessible overview of the attempts to build a final "theory of everything." He explains in simple terms what scientists are talking about when they say the world is made from exotic entities such as loops, strings, and black holes and tells the fascinating stories behind these discoveries: the rivalries, epiphanies, and intrigues he witnessed firsthand. Written with exceptional style and clarity, Three Roads to Quantum Gravity confronts the deepest questions of the nature of the universe and provides a preview of some of the remarkable scientific developments we can look forward to in the 21st century.

Thank you for this book

I downloaded this book looking for answers to the many questions I had about quantum gravity and I got those answers (at least as much as we know about them) and so much more. Every time a question started forming in my head as I listened, he would somehow instinctively know and then address it. Also, Lee does a great job of discussing all theories, even competing ones and seems to really believe that the answers lie in some new combination of the many theories. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this book covers so much more than just quantum gravity. It is written also in a relax conversational way that makes it easy to listen to.
