书籍简介：

What are time and space made of? Where does matter come from? And what exactly is reality? Theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli has spent his whole life exploring these questions and pushing the boundaries of what we know. Here he explains how our image of the world has changed over the last few dozen centuries. In elegant and accessible prose, Rovelli takes us on a wondrous journey from Aristotle to Albert Einstein, from Michael Faraday to the Higgs boson, and from classical physics to his own work in quantum gravity. As he shows us how the idea of reality has evolved over time, Rovelli offers readers a deeper understanding of the theories he introduced so concisely in Seven Brief Lessons on Physics. His evocative explanations invite us to imagine, beyond our ever-changing idea of reality, a whole new world that has yet to be discovered.

书友短评：

@ 墨阳阳花生 超级棒！又生动、又理性的一部科普。在最后两章还解决了我研究和生活中的痛点。1. Science is not repair because it provides certainty. It’s reliable because it provides us with the best answers we have at present. 2. The nature of a man is not his internal structure. … we are that which others know of us, that which we know of ourselves, and that which others know about our knowledge. @ Bach 花非花雾非雾说的就是本书了…量子物理将启蒙又启不了蒙的状态…
