A splendid, edifying report from the front lines of theorectical physics . . . A wonderful gift. The San Francisco Chronicle<br><br> An uncommonly clear and confident account . . . Even those who differ with many of Smolin's contentions can applaud his bringing physicists' anguished night thoughts into the clear light of day. --Tim Ferris<br><br> If you want to think in new ways about the interconnected universe around you, read Lee Smolin's provocative, inspiring book. --Margaret Geller<br><br> The best book about contemporary science written for the layman that I have ever read ... Read this book. Twice. <br><br>The Times of London
