Leonard Susskind is the Felix Bloch Professor of Theoretical Physics at Stanford, he's one of the pioneers of string theory. Along with Gerard 't Hooft, he is an advocate for the "Holographic principle", according to which the universe is a giant hologram.
What happens when something is sucked into a black hole? Does it disappear? Three decades ago, a young physicist named Stephen Hawking claimed it did-and in doing so put at risk everything we know about physics and the fundamental laws of the universe. Most scientists didn't recognize the import of Hawking's claims, but Leonard Susskind and Gerard t'Hooft realized the threat, and responded with a counterattack that changed the course of physics. THE BLACK HOLE WAR is the thrilling story of their united effort to reconcile Hawking's revolutionary theories of black holes with their own sense of reality-effort that would eventually result in Hawking admitting he was wrong, paying up, and Susskind and t'Hooft realizing that our world is a hologram projected from the outer boundaries of space.
A brilliant book about modern physics, quantum mechanics, the fate of stars and the deep mysteries of black holes, Leonard Susskind's account of the Black Hole War is mind-bending and exhilarating reading.

發錶於光明網 《黑洞戰爭》是一本迴憶錄,作者是當代最後一名費曼式的物理學傢,斯坦福大學的倫納德·薩斯坎德。他參與瞭一場曠日持久的戰爭,一場對黑洞本質的辯論大戰,這場大論戰扭轉瞭物理學傢對世界本質的認識,引發瞭一場全新的革命,極大地推動瞭物理學的發展。參加論...
評分Susskind明白“多一個公式就少賣1萬本”這個道理,通篇的類比講解,讓原本復雜無比的理論物理前沿研究變得形象生動起來。雖然整本書幾乎沒有公式(僅有的幾個公式對於上過高中的人來說都能看懂),但從相對論的基本原理,到量子力學的奇怪現象,再到black hole entropy, 最後到...
評分科普內容沒多少,盡是些流水賬式個人經曆,這種爛書居然那麼高分,打高分是沒看過科普書嗎?和霍金的書比起來簡直就是垃圾,80%的章節可以跳過和科普相關的也就一點內容,原本以為整書都在描述黑洞結果大部分內容作者都在瞎逼逼,尤其是雅哈在劍橋這一章節寫的什麼吊玩意兒?湊...
評分書中明顯流露齣教主那種放蕩不羈的性格以及他對霍金的熱愛。 和他的講課的風格差不多,作者用老奶奶都能聽的懂的語言介紹黑洞,信息佯謬以及量子引力學發展的方方麵麵。 此外,讀完這本書,覺得霍金真的很厲害!

Good physics, bad narrative.
評分科普書總歸是寫給科學盲看的
評分good explanation of physics and anecdotes. but the 'proof' is only in the AdS space, far from complete.
評分類似迴憶錄的科普,高智商大佬間的腦力PK,甩瞭一堆臥槽這尼瑪都想得齣來臥槽還真尼瑪都給算齣來瞭的包袱。然後通篇大量類比,把黑洞信息和全息原理的諸多猜想和論據講得不明覺厲。但亞馬遜桑你確定這是童書?
