So I was delighted when Sean Carroll immediately agreed to a brief telephone interview.
To a writer who has spent the past four years interviewing, reviewing, and talking to leading physicists, philosophers and cosmologists it was an opportunity not to be missed. Janna Levin, professor of physics and astronomy at Barnard College and author of Black Hole Blues Sean includes us in the battle between a simple reality versus a multitude of realities that feels barely on the periphery of human comprehension.
“Sean Carroll is always lucid and funny, gratifyingly readable, while excavating depths. With bold clarity, Carroll deftly unmasks quantum weirdness to reveal a strange but utterly wondrous reality.”īrian Greene, professor of physics and mathematics, director of Columbia’s Center for Theoretical Physics and author of The Elegant Universe “A thrilling tour through what is perhaps humankind’s greatest intellectual achievement - quantum mechanics. Scott Aaronson, professor of computer science at the University of Texas at Austin “I was overwhelmed by tears of joy… Something Deeply Hidden is a masterpiece, which stands along with Feynman’s QED as one of the two best popularizations of quantum mechanics I’ve ever seen.” His new, long-awaited book, Something Deeply Hidden: Quantum Worlds and the Emergence of Spacetime, just out, is already receiving rave reviews from leading critics: Sean Carroll is one of our greatest contemporary science writers, His ability to climb into a cloudy concept - clean out the cobwebs and let the sunlight in - is phenomenal.
