Carlo Rovelli (2014)
“Brief” they are indeed: this is not Feynman’s Six Easy Pieces: Essentials of Physics By Its Most Brilliant Teacher in any respect, rather it’s a popular-science description of some of the currents in modern physics. And it’s amazingly well-done, making the concepts understandable as only someone immersed in them and gifted both in the science and in literature can possibly make them.
4/5. Finished Saturday 17 November, 2018.
