The Elegant Universe - Brian Greene
Dec. 25th, 2008 10:02 pmFrom chapter 1 - page 2.......
Even if you are willing to keep the deep interior of a black hole and the beginning of the universe shrouded in mystery, you can't help feeling that the hostility between quantum mechanics and general relativity cries out for a deeper level of understanding.
Can it really be that the universe at it's most fundamental level is divided, requiring one set of laws when things are large and a different, incompatible set when things are small?
My brain is either going to expand or explode if I actually get through this entire book.
I'm looking forward to the final result with great anticipation......... :-)
