The Hole in the Universe: How Scientists Peered over the Edge of Emptiness and Found Everything

The Hole in the Universe: How Scientists Peered over the Edge of Emptiness and Found Everything by Cole, K. C.. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780151003983.

Welcome to the world of cutting-edge math, physics, and neuroscience, where the search for the ultimate vacuum, the point of nothingness, ground zero of theory, has rendered the universe deep, rich, and juicy. "Modern physics has animated the void," says K. C. Cole in her entrancing journey into the heart of Nothing. Every time scientists and mathematicians think they have reached the ultimate void, new stuff appears: a black hole, an undulating string, an additional dimension of space or time, repulsive anti-gravity, universes that breed like bunnies. Coles exploration at the edge of everything is as animated and exciting as the void itself. Take Coles hand on this adventure into the unknown, and youll come back informed, amused, and excited.
