Sean Carroll is a theoretical physicist at the California Institute of Technology. His research focuses on fundamental issues in quantum mechanics, gravitation, statistical mechanics, and cosmology. He has wide-ranging interests, including in philosophy, complexity theory, and information.
Carroll is an active science communicator, and has been blogging regularly since 2004. His textbook "Spacetime and Geometry" has been adopted by a number of universities for their graduate courses in general relativity. He is a frequent public speaker, and has appeared on TV shows such as The Colbert Report and Through The Wormhole with Morgan Freeman. He has produced a set of lectures for The Teaching Company on dark matter and dark energy, and another on the nature of time. He has served as a science consultant for films such as Thor and TRON: Legacy, as well as for TV shows such as Fringe and Bones.
His 2010 popular book, "From Eternity to Here," explained the arrow of time and connected it with the origin of our universe. "The Particle at the End of the Universe," about the Large Hadron Collider and the quest to discover the Higgs boson, was released November 2012. "The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself" will appear in May 2016.

评分最初被邀请读这本书的时候,我是犹豫了一下的,毕竟这种书名(特别是副题)实在有点像那些宣称自己推翻了相对论的民科会写的名堂。不过查了豆瓣简介后,觉得基本还是靠谱的。 拿到书先翻目录,有几章的标题很抓眼球——《诗性自然主义》(第2章)、《现实涌现而来》(第12章)...
评分拿到手发现校对居然是Ent,期待一下子就高了起来。 现在的科普像科研一样,愈发趋向具体和专门,比如讲进化论或者心智科学,毕竟能把一个问题讲清楚就不容易了。 但肖恩·卡罗尔这本书开头就是本体论和认识论两个宏大议题,仿佛回到了亚里士多德的哲学物理时代,这些问题宏大到...
