Or rather: what exactly is it? Here Frank Wilczek, Nobel Prize-winning physicist and legend, examines the very nature of reality itself, showing how almost everything we think we know about it is wrong.</p><p><em>The Lightness of Being</em> is an engaging tour de force, revealing a universe where matter is the hum of strange music, mass doesnt weigh, and empty space is a multilayered, multicoloured superconductor. Physicists understanding of the essential nature of reality changed radically over the past quarter century. And Frank Wilczek has played a lead role in establishing the new paradigms. Transcending the clash and mismatch of older ideas about what matter and space is, Wilczek presents some brilliant and clear syntheses. Extraordinarily readable and authoritative, <em>The Lightness of Being</em> is the first book to unwrap these exciting new ideas for the general public. It explores their implications for basic questions about space, mass, energy, and the longed-for possibility of a fully unified theory of Nature.</p><p>Pointing to new directions where great discoveries in fundamental physics are likely, and providing a visionary context for the experiments in CERN, he envisions a new Golden Age in physics.</p>...2493480The Lightness of Being226257https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-lightness-of-being-9780141927626/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3427278/bf80a84d-3868-4421-a75b-00e78ef1cb43.jpg?v=638865641231930000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20099780141927626_W3siaWQiOiIxNGQ0MWVkMC01MWZhLTQ2NjgtOTNlMC0zNGI1MGJiMzk2MTQiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjI0MiwiZGlzY291bnQiOjI5LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjIxMywiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTEtMTVUMjI6MDA6MDBaIiwidG8iOiIyMDI0LTExLTMwVDIzOjU5OjU5WiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9LHsiaWQiOiI1MTQ0ZGQ3My02MWViLTRhMzQtYjBjMi0yNDQzOGYzNmYyMjQiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjI2MCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjM5LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjIyMSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780141927626_<p>Whats the meaning of it all?
