Seven Brief Lessons on Physics
Book • 2016
In this book, Carlo Rovelli condenses the key revelations of post-Newtonian physics into seven brief, accessible lessons.
The book covers Einstein's theory of relativity, quantum mechanics, the architecture of the cosmos, particles, grains of space, probability, time, and black holes.
Rovelli uses a literary approach to explain these complex concepts, making the book enjoyable and understandable for non-specialized readers.
The book also explores the nature of time, the role of humans in the universe, and the interworking of the universe at both grand and minute scales.
