The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory Free Audiobook Download by Brian Greene

What does it mean to be aware of the universe around you? For most people, it means capturing and preserving a sense of its vastness, breadth, and depth. It means grasping how it is more than what we can see and hear - that there is more to the universe than meets the eye. But for some of us, our awareness extends beyond what we can see or even think about. It becomes something deeper, something that touches the unseen forces that have shaped our lives since childhood: forces like love or family loyalty or deep-seated fears.

From the author of bestseller The Fabric of the Cosmos: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Universe's Layers and How They Shape Our Lives comes a brilliant new way to think about our universe. Building on Einstein's theories of relativity, Brian Greene weaves together a breathtaking story based on recent discoveries in particle physics and cosmology to show how scientists are working to understand the deepest questions about time, space, and matter. This is Greene's first audio book--his thoughts are brought to life by voices narrated by Erik Davies.

Brian Greene, author of The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory explains what is meant by a theory that has hidden dimensions. "I want to talk about something curious," he says. "It's a theory that has hidden dimensions." A mathematician turned theoretical physicist, Brian Greene is an expert in string theory who speaks about it with confidence as well as charm.

This book is about string theory and its underlying principles, which are the most elegant ideas in theoretical physics today. It is also about how string theory extends into the three realms of mathematics, cosmology, and particle physics.

It's an intriguing journey through the universe and its mysteries. If you ever wanted to know more about the famous string theory, or even if you're just interested in how the universe works, this book is for you. Greene does a great job of explaining complex concepts without dumbing them down too much. The audiobook is well narrated by Erik Davies and provides a good listen for long drives.

In The Elegant Universe, physicist Brian Greene builds upon concepts he first explored in his 2003 best seller, The Fabric of the Cosmos. In this book, he explains how string theory was proposed by physicists in the 1970s and then popularized by Edward Witten in 1994. This field of research is still very new, but Greene thinks we're on the cusp of understanding a number of fundamental forces and ultimately solving Einstein's eternal mystery: what's behind the "gravitational force."
