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.

日子一天一天、一星期一星期地過去,年輕人仍舊在鞋匠傢住著,乾他的活。他的名聲傳開瞭,誰做靴子也沒有他做得利落、結實。這一帶的人都找他做靴子,鞋匠傢漸漸富裕起來。

就這樣,鞋匠夫婦收留瞭這個倒在雪地的年輕人,並且教他做鞋子。無論教他乾什麼,他都領會得很快,乾起來就像縫鞋縫瞭一輩子似的。

此外,在巨庭和劍河中間還設計瞭另一個納維爾庭院(Nevile's Court),但是這個庭院的整個風格要到17世紀末由建築大師剋裏斯托弗·萊恩爵士(Sir Christopher Wren)設計的圖書館矗立起來之後纔算完整。
