Synopsis

The universe has many secrets. It may hide additional dimensions of space other than the familier three we recognize. There might even be another universe adjacent to ours, invisible and unattainable . . . for now.
Warped Passages is a brilliantly readable and altogether exhilarating journey that tracks the arc of discovery from early twentieth-century physics to the razor's edge of modern scientific theory. One of the world's leading theoretical physicists, Lisa Randall provides astonishing scientific possibilities that, until recently, were restricted to the realm of science fiction. Unraveling the twisted threads of the most current debates on relativity, quantum mechanics, and gravity, she explores some of the most fundamental questions posed by Nature—taking us into the warped, hidden dimensions underpinning the universe we live in, demystifying the science of the myriad worlds that may exist just beyond our own.
At Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Warped-Passag...dp/B002TS77Y8/.

Good ratings at both Amazon and GoodReads.

Huge book--512 pages.

This is one book that I'd love to have as an audiobook. One is available, but there is no Whispersync deal to help soften the blow of the cost of the audio.

I encourage anyone buying this book to read it at warp speed (yes, pun intended). It looks like it was published in 2009--ten years ago. Information in cosmology changes so very fast . . . .

Thanks for the post!
