    From Eternity to Here....

    From Eternity to Here. The Quest for the Ultimate Theory of Time

    Forse Engelstalige Hardcover met stofomslag. Mooi exemplaar, zo goed als nieuw. Like New.

    A rising star in theoretical physics offers his awesome vision of our universe and beyond, all beginning with a simple question: Why does time move forward?

    Time moves forward, not backward—everyone knows you can't unscramble an egg. In the hands of one of today's hottest young physicists, that simple fact of breakfast becomes a doorway to understanding the Big Bang, the universe, and other universes, too. In From Eternity to Here, Sean Carroll argues that the arrow of time, pointing resolutely from the past to the future, owes its existence to conditions before the Big Bang itself— a period modern cosmology of which Einstein never dreamed. Increasingly, though, physicists are going out into realms that make the theory of relativity seem like child's play. Carroll's scenario is not only elegant, it's laid out in the same easy-to- understand language that has made his group blog, Cosmic Variance, the most popular physics blog on the Net.

    From Eternity to Here uses ideas at the cutting edge of theoretical physics to explore how properties of spacetime before the Big Bang can explain the flow of time we experience in our everyday lives. Carroll suggests that we live in a baby universe, part of a large family of universes in which many of our siblings experience an arrow of time running in the opposite direction. It's an ambitious, fascinating picture of the universe on an ultra-large scale, one that will captivate fans of popular physics blockbusters like Elegant Universe and A Brief History of Time.

    Programming the Universe. A Quantum Computer Scientist Takes on the Cosmos

    Engelstalige paperback, mooi ex. nagenoeg als nieuw. 

    The Universe Is Made Of Bits. The Way In Which The Universe Registers And Processes Information Determines What It Is And How It Behaves. It Has Been Known For More Than A Century That Every Piece Of The Universe - Every Electron, Atom, And Molecule - Registers Bits Of Information. It Is Only In The Last Ten Years, However, With The Discovery And Development Of Quantum Computers, That Scientists Have Gained A Fundamental Understanding Of Just How That Information Is Registered And Processed. Seth Lloyd Calls This Fundamental Understanding Of The Universe In Terms Of Information Processing 'The Computational Universe', And The Purpose Of This Book Is To Show How The Programmed, Computational Universe Works. Starting From Basic Concepts Of Physics, Programming The Universe Shows How All Physical Systems Register Information. It Gives An Accessible Account Of How Information Is Stored And Processed At The Level Of Electrons, Atoms, And Molecules. It Shows How The Information Processing Power Of The Universe Can Be Harnessed To Build Quantum Computers And Explains How The Universe Itself Behaves Like A Gigantic Computer, Transforming And Processing Information. It Traces The History Of Information Processing From The Big Bang To The Present Day, And Reveals How The Computational Ability Of The Universe Promotes The Evolution Of Complex Structures Such As Life. Programming The Universe Is The Story Of The Universe And The Bits It Is Made Of.
