Brian Greene is such a great story teller. He really makes physics understandable. This book sounds great!! I'm 70 and I want to read it too.
I have this book, the pictures are great and the story is excellent to!
He did that!
@nickharvey7 1. nope, it's also represent an energy which particle have on that "passage"
2. as far I knew, it's just predicted the probability of "the past and the future" of electron' traveling area
5, 6, 7? I'm 14 and I NEED to read this!
@nickharvey7 not exactly it's more complicated, the simple thinks are differences between quantum and classical physics based on what kind of perspective we see a particle, a space and a time.
classical physics assumption always be "a static space, static time and static particle", but in quantum's area vice versa.
Could the difference between quantum and classical physics be because quantum represents the passage of time ∆E ∆t ≥ h/2π itself?
This theory is based on two postulates
1. Is that the quantum wave particle function explained by Schrödinger’s wave equation represents the forward passage of time or Arrow of Time itself photon by photon
2. Is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆p×≥h/4π that is formed by the wave function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event
He should write something explaining physics for young adults.
@reno36 So physics itself is not what makes it awesome?
I hope I can take Phd on physics and make a fun-discuss with him ...
brian greene is either a prophet, a complete badass, or the antichrist. He's awesome either way.
@underage4page: Who, Greene or the book?
@nickharvey7 no
Eh. Besides a board book. I mean novel-length. :D Which would be epic, because then I'd have something else to fangirl about.
"fangirl" is for dopey kids not intelligent adults.I don't "fangirl" ANYBODY.
science? yes it is
