Steven Manly teaches in the physics department at the University of Rochester in New York.
Info on the book: The idea of a multiple universe reality is no longer considered
speculative or implausible by many physicists; rather, it is deemed
inescapable. Distinct concepts of the multiverse spring from quantum
mechanics, cosmology, string theory-based cosmology, and ideas about a
mathematics based reality that borders on the religious.
In this
accessible and entertaining book, Dr. Manly guides you on a tour of the
many multiverse concepts and provides the non-technical background to
understand them.
Visions of the Multiverse explores questions such as:
Just what is a multiverse?
What are the different concepts of the multiverse and how are they related?
Is it possible to determine if we live in a multiverse...or even in multiple types of multiverses?
How
do religious concepts of the afterlife and popular ideas based on the
Law of Attraction relate to the scientific visions of the multiverse?
Dr.
Manly discusses a wide variety of fascinating concepts from relativity
and the fundamental particles and forces of nature to dark matter, dark
energy, and quantum mechanics in an unintimidating and conversational
tone.
