The Cosmic Landscape

"Nothing less than an insider's guided tour of theoretic physics over the last century or so. . . .allows us to see the world of science from the inside out." —Jonathan Kirsh, The Los Angeles Times

In his first book ever, the father of string theory reinvents the world's concept of the known universe and man's unique place within it. Using string theory, the multiverse and anthropic principle, Susskind explains how the universe came together without an intelligent designer, or supernatural guidance. The edition includes line drawings.
