内容简介

Roger Penrose, one of the most accomplished scientists of our time, presents the only comprehensive and comprehensible account of the physics of the universe. From the very first attempts by the Greeks to grapple with the complexities of our known world to the latest application of infinity in physics, The Road to Reality carefully explores the movement of the smallest atomic particles and reaches into the vastness of intergalactic space. Here, Penrose examines the mathematical foundations of the physical universe, exposing the underlying beauty of physics and giving us one the most important works in modern science writing.

作者简介

Roger Penrose is Emeritus Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at Oxford University. He has received a number of prizes and awards, including the 1988 Wolf Prize for physics, which he shared with Stephen Hawking for their joint contribution to our understanding of the universe. His books include The Emperor's New Mind, Shadows of the Mind, and The Nature of Space and Time, which he wrote with Hawking. He has lectured extensively at universities throughout America. He lives in Oxford.

他的话音未落，门环响了，进来的是那位老爷的仆人。一进门就大声嚷嚷：“不用做了！老爷还没到家就死在车里了。太太对我说：‘你去告诉鞋匠，靴子不用做了，赶快拿那块料做一双给死人穿的便鞋。’”

然而，至今我们无法知道宇宙有多大，科学家的解释或许是有道理的，他们说，宇宙还在不断地膨胀……这也许能证明宇宙这个巨大的生命体，正在少年时期，还在不断地成长发育。
