Sean Carroll examines the most exciting ideas in contemporary physics in the final book of his monumental trilogy.
THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING SERIES
‘Neat, and extremely simple: only a deep thinker such as Sean Carroll could introduce the complexity of Einstein’s general relativity in such a luminous and straightforward manner.’ Carlo Rovelli
Immense, strange and infinite, the world of modern physics often feels impenetrable to the undiscerning eye – a jumble of muons, gluons and quarks, impossible to explain without several degrees and a research position at CERN.
But it doesn’t have to be this way!
Allow world-renowned theoretical physicist and bestselling author Sean Carroll to guide you through the biggest ideas in the universe. Elegant and simple, Carroll unravels a web of theory to get to the heart of the truths they represent about the world around us.
—
In Complexity and Emergence, the final book of this landmark trilogy, Carroll explores the extraordinary physics which governs complex systems. From the immense forces which determine the workings of our universe to the properties that allow cells to arrange themselves into anything from microscopic plankton to a blue whale, Carroll journeys through the astonishing science of emergence and its profound metaphysical implications.
