內容簡介

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.

作者簡介

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.

“這是五六年前的事瞭，”她說，“那時候我和我男人在鄉下種地，跟她們的父母是鄰居。那傢隻有當傢的一個男人，在林子裏乾活。有一迴，一棵樹放倒的時候壓在他身上，把五髒六腑都快壓齣來瞭，抬到傢就斷瞭氣。那個星期他女人生下一對女兒，就是這兩個。傢裏窮，又沒人幫忙，那女人孤零零地生下孩子，又孤零零地死瞭。

三一學院的教堂是由亨利八世的女兒瑪麗·都鐸於1554年修建的，雖然整個教堂的內部裝潢要到18世紀纔能全部完成。教堂前廳擺著從三一學院畢業的著名畢業生的玉石雕像，包括瞭牛頓、培根、丁尼生等人。
