Acerca de esta escucha

The universe has many secrets. It may hide additional dimensions of space other than the familiar three we recognize. There might even be another universe adjacent to ours, invisible and unattainable...for now.

Warped Passages is an altogether exhilarating journey that tracks the arc of discovery from early 20th-century physics to the razor's edge of modern scientific theory. One of the world's leading theoretical physicists, Lisa Randall provides astonishing scientific possibilities that, until recently, were restricted to the realm of science fiction. Unraveling the twisted threads of the most current debates on relativity, quantum mechanics, and gravity, she explores some of the most fundamental questions posed by Nature - taking us into the warped, hidden dimensions underpinning the universe we live in, demystifying the science of the myriad worlds that may exist just beyond our own.

I really love Lisa's theory of the 2 branes on a higher dimensional Bulk. I have no background in physics, just curiosity. I understand maybe 75% of this book. as I was reading, I was coming up with ideas and she ended up addressing many of them. it was neat.

good book, well narrated, well written, concepts are very well explained, I want more just like this

great

the analogies ruined it for me. take those out and you have a 5 star

the analogies are stupid and dont help explain

I found myself feeling diminutive after stopping the book after each session. Tough to detach from a soaring intellect.

perfect balance of requisite information building

Interesting enough to get to the end but keeping all the features and characteristics of the myriad particles, dimensions and branes memorized was a challenge.

Physics textbook without the math

A master class in how to hook a physics reader/listener. The analogies were clever, funny and memorable. I would have liked some of the mathematics, possibly layered so others could skip it. If Feynman could do it, so can you.

Very much enjoyed this book. Illustrates some of the newest models in quantum, and astro, physics in a way a lay person can understand

Excellent book

please do not buy this book if you're really interested in particle physics it is a book that was written well before the Large hadron collider came online but it was recorded in 2017 with the authors knowing that it was completely obsolete it only talked about what they hoped they would find in the new collider. there's nothing new in this book period do not buy.

10 years obsolete

Audible makes this book appear current by claiming a "release date" of 12-19-17. I was extremely disappointed to discover it was actually written in 2005 after the author mentioned the "yet to be constructed LHC".

Audible is lying about the "Release Date"

Content: Book starts at classical particle physics and moves to the modern speculative theories that are being developed. While these may be interesting to some the author misses the mark by constantly repeating the same idea in slightly different ways. I felt she was just increasing her word count. Additionally written with content that made it childish and seemed to be for teenagers that have a background in high energy physics.
Performance: Narrator would dramatize concepts that did not match the content. It was tiresome to listen to.

Not sure why or for who
