Evidence for the Multiverse

Susskind's vision of the cosmic landscape provides the most compelling evidence yet that our Universe is just one of many in an infinite spacetime.
This completely pulls the rug from under the "intelligent design" argument.

A new Law of Nature?

Thought provoking and fascinating book that gives a clear notion what anthropic principle is about. Have the physicists discovered a new fundamental law of nature? This book gives a definite impression that this indeed happened.

In his first book ever, the father of string theory reinvents our concept of the known universe and mans unique place within it. The beginning of the 21st century is a watershed in modern science, a time that will forever change our understanding of the universe, Leonard Susskind contends. Several decades ago, Susskind introduced the revolutionary concept of string theory to the world of physical science. In doing so, he inspired a generation of physicists who believed that the theory would uniquely predict the properties of our universe. Now, in his first book ever, Susskind argues that the very idea of such an elegant theory no longer suits our understanding of the universe, and that our narrow 20th-century view of a unique universe will have to give way to the much broader concept of a gigantic cosmic landscapea megaverse, pregnant with new possibilities. His other contributions to physics are too numerous to mention, but his recent victory in an argument with Stephen Hawking over the nature of black holes made headlines everywhere.
