Are there other dimensions beyond our own? Is time travel possible? Can we change the past? Are there gateways to parallel universes? All of us have pondered such questions, but there was a time when scientists dismissed these notions as outlandish speculations. Not any more. Today, they are the focus of the most intense scientific activity in recent memory. In Hyperspace, Michio Kaku, author of the widely acclaimed Beyond Einstein and a leading theoretical physicist, offers the first book-length tour of the most exciting (and perhaps most bizarre) work in modern physics, work which includes research on the tenth dimension, time warps, black holes, and multiple universes. The theory of hyperspace (or higher dimensional space) - and its newest wrinkle, superstring theory - stand at the center of this revolution, with adherents in every major research laboratory in the world, including several Nobel laureates. Beginning where Hawking's Brief History of Time left off, Kaku paints a vivid portrayal of the breakthroughs now rocking the physics establishment. Why all the excitement? As the author points out, for over half a century, scientists have puzzled over why the basic forces of the cosmos - gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear forces - require markedly different mathematical descriptions. But if we see these forces as vibrations in a higher dimensional space, their field equations suddenly fit together like pieces in a jigsaw puzzle, perfectly snug, in an elegant, astonishingly simple form. This may thus be our leading candidate for the Theory of Everything. If so, it would be the crowning achievement of 2,000 years of scientific investigation into matter and itsforces. Already, the theory has inspired several thousand research papers, and has been the focus of over 200 international conferences. Many leading scientists believe the theory will unlock the deepest secrets of creation and answer some of the most intriguing questions of all
在高維中探索時間旅行,超弦理論統一十維宇宙,物理學定律將在高維中得到簡化! 超空間理論認為:我們的宇宙存在於四維時空以外的更高維度;它預言瞭超空間的精確維度是十維;它可以將所有已知的自然力統一起來;它可以計算時空麯率及打開蟲洞所需的精確能量;它的高級錶現形式...
評分我春節迴傢時坐飛機,本來飛機是下午3:20起飛,結果居然等到晚上8:20纔飛。我坐在機場,沒有什麼事好做,就把這本書看完瞭。 想到買一本這樣的書完全是受《生活大爆炸》的影響,想搞清一下謝耳朵同學平時研究的倒底都是些什麼學問,在douban上查瞭一上,好像是說這本最好懂,...
評分此書梳理瞭黎曼幾何→相對論→量子力學→弦論,這條近一百年的物理學逼近我們世界真相的道路,特彆是幾何空間→微觀粒子→高維幾何空間,這樣一個在高維中將自然規律簡化的麯摺發展曆程。 此書的優點在於,作者多年浸淫在現代物理的奇妙世界中,對主要理論的來龍去脈都異常清晰...

評分人類關於物質本性的討論,從古希臘時期就已經不停地討論瞭。事實上,或許生活在這個世界上的每個人都曾經──至少可能在小時候──問過自己,我是誰,這個世界是由什麼組成的,這個世界之外是什麼樣子的。 這樣的問題或許在絕大多數成年人眼裏看來毫無意義,他們隻需要知道這是...
有趣,深入淺齣。
评分Unification of theories in higher dimensions. 其實蠻期待最後能在哲學和宗教層麵多討論一些(喂人傢是物理科普書。寫得很生動,對我這種layman很友好,不過中間還是讀得有點吃力,怪我基礎知識太缺乏瞭。
评分有趣,深入淺齣。
