Are there other dimensions beyond our own? Is time travel possible? Can we change the past? Are there gateways to parallel universes? All of us have pondered such questions, but there was a time when scientists dismissed these notions as outlandish speculations. Not any more. Today, they are the focus of the most intense scientific activity in recent memory. In Hyperspace, Michio Kaku, author of the widely acclaimed Beyond Einstein and a leading theoretical physicist, offers the first book-length tour of the most exciting (and perhaps most bizarre) work in modern physics, work which includes research on the tenth dimension, time warps, black holes, and multiple universes. The theory of hyperspace (or higher dimensional space) - and its newest wrinkle, superstring theory - stand at the center of this revolution, with adherents in every major research laboratory in the world, including several Nobel laureates. Beginning where Hawking's Brief History of Time left off, Kaku paints a vivid portrayal of the breakthroughs now rocking the physics establishment. Why all the excitement? As the author points out, for over half a century, scientists have puzzled over why the basic forces of the cosmos - gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear forces - require markedly different mathematical descriptions. But if we see these forces as vibrations in a higher dimensional space, their field equations suddenly fit together like pieces in a jigsaw puzzle, perfectly snug, in an elegant, astonishingly simple form. This may thus be our leading candidate for the Theory of Everything. If so, it would be the crowning achievement of 2,000 years of scientific investigation into matter and itsforces. Already, the theory has inspired several thousand research papers, and has been the focus of over 200 international conferences. Many leading scientists believe the theory will unlock the deepest secrets of creation and answer some of the most intriguing questions of all
这是我阅读时间比较长的一本书。在为期一周的时间内,它伴我走过了北京、上海及江苏。读得慢,是因为此书属于理论物理,一个我非常不熟悉的领域;之所以还能卒读,是因为此书又属于科普读物。 这本书有一个不起眼的名字——《超越时空》,放在书店的书架上,我相信,没有多少...
評分极其优秀的科普著作。三体只不过是这本书的小说化的改写。二十年后中国才翻译这本书,太晚了。 p9 从树木和山脉到恒星本身,只不过是超空间中的振动。平行宇宙中的蛀洞或者管道网的可能性是存在的。 p3 我想知道上帝怎样创造了这个世界,对这样或那样的具体现象我不太感兴趣。...
評分为什么地球人至今寻找不到其他星际文明? (327页到329页书摘) 一种解释是,地球智慧生命史(百万年),相对于宇宙时间尺度(数十亿年)而言,只是一瞬间;因此有理由假设许多智慧生物在人类存在之前已经消亡,也有更多星际文明尚未发展起来。 另一种解释是,当我们在田野中散...
評分这本书的作者加来道雄是一位很出名的理论物理学家,貌似曾获过诺贝尔奖,钻研在高维度空间领域,或者说是弦理论领域。 他在书里写到,我们这些生活在地球上的人类或许一开始并不知道为什么会出现春夏秋冬四季变化的现象,可能会误以为有某种神秘的自然力在操控着季节...
評分你们这些还魂尸-by 罗伯特.海因莱因 1970年11月7日,第5时区(东部标准时间)22:17。纽约市“老爹”酒吧。 我正在擦净一只喝白兰地酒用的矮脚杯时,“未婚妈妈”进来了。我注意了一下时间:1970年11月7日,第5时区或东部时区下午10点17分。干时空这一行的人总是注意时间...
Unification of theories in higher dimensions. 其實蠻期待最後能在哲學和宗教層麵多討論一些(喂人傢是物理科普書。寫得很生動,對我這種layman很友好,不過中間還是讀得有點吃力,怪我基礎知識太缺乏瞭。
