'In this brilliant book, Mack makes learning feel thrilling, and along the way helps us to understand what science actually does' John Green
From one of the most exciting voices in science, a fascinating behind-the-scenes tour of modern physics
What is the universe made of, and how do we know? For decades, physicists have studied this question, circling the most fundamental yet enigmatic building blocks of our world, descending to a level below atoms into the mysterious particles and fields that make up the quantum realm. This astonishing world is the key to understanding the workings of the universe, but it has held its secrets close.
In How to Build a Universe, celebrated astrophysicist Katie Mack pulls back the curtain on these mysteries, presenting the most cutting-edge picture of what we know so far. And she shows we may be on the precipice of a monumental breakthrough, one that could shatter everything we thought we knew about the universe and the nature of reality.
Thrilling and witty, How to Build a Universe is a ringside seat to some of the most mind-bending and exciting developments in physics and cosmology as they undergo a revolution, informed by the smallest and most alluring particles.
