Our mathematical universe My quest for the ultimate nature of reality

By: Language: English Publication details: Penguin Books 2015 LondonDescription: IX, 421pISBN:
  • 9780241954638 (PB)
Subject(s): Summary: 'Our Mathematical Universe' is a journey to explore the mysteries uncovered by cosmology and to discover the nature of reality. Our Big Bang, our distant future, parallel worlds, the sub-atomic and intergalactic - none of them are what they seem. But there is a way to understand this immense strangeness - mathematics. Seeking an answer to the fundamental puzzle of why our universe seems so mathematical, Tegmark proposes a radical idea: that our physical world not only is described by mathematics, but that it is mathematics. This may offer answers to our deepest questions: How large is reality? What is everything made of? Why is our universe the way it is?
