Reality Is Not What It Seems : The Journey to Quantum Gravity
Carlo Rovelli
"The man who makes physics sexy . . . the scientist they're calling the next Stephen Hawking." —The Times Magazine
From the New York Times–bestselling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics, a closer look at the mind-bending nature of the universe.
