En savoir plus sur le livre

From the world-renowned physicist and bestselling author of The Elegant Universe and The Fabric of the Cosmos comes a captivating exploration of deep time and humanity's search for purpose. The cosmos is vast yet governed by simple, elegant mathematical laws. Our human era, while spectacular, is fleeting, and we know that both we and the universe will eventually perish. This breathtaking exploration delves into our quest to understand the cosmos, taking us from the universe's beginning to its eventual end. Greene examines how life and consciousness emerged from chaos and how our awareness of impermanence drives us to seek meaning through story, myth, religion, creative expression, science, and the pursuit of truth. Through nested stories that reveal distinct yet interconnected layers of reality—from quantum mechanics to consciousness and black holes—Greene clarifies our origins, our current state, and our future trajectory. However, this understanding, which arose with life, will vanish with its conclusion, leaving us with the realization that, in our brief existence, we must find our own meaning. Let us embark on this journey together.
