New theories of everything: the quest for ultimate explanation
(Book)
John D. Barrow guides us through the latest concepts emerging in theoretical physics that together form the ingredients of a Theory of Everything, from the M-theory of superstrings, and speculations about the world as a computer program, to novel ideas of self-organisation and new forms of complexity.
