Warped Passeges – Lisa Randall

Lisa Randall, a professor of science at Harvard University, has written articles in cosmology and theoretical particle physics in many journals. As a result of their work with Raman Sundrum, they proposed to solve the problem of hierarchy with a new high-dimensional mechanism. It was named “Randal-Sundrum Model”.

We have entered a new era in physics with additional dimensions of the universe, branes, string theory. We discovered space-time bending with special relativity. Quantum physics allowed us to go deeper into the particles and open our eyes to a universe filled with uncertainties by showing how the scales and the way we understand our universe can change

Now we are going deeper and deeper to investigate building blocks of spacetime.

Warped Passages is chasing answers , with understanding the dimensioonal structure of universe, about why gravity is so weak,why spins of particles are just like they are,”Can we pass to another dimension or not?” or “Why are 3 dimensiniol beings rather than 5 dimensional?

The book is one of the books that best describes (my opinion) fifth dimension of the universe, branes and strings with some storytelling parts through characters like Ike,— he fluent style and technical information are avoided– by being written in a way that will appeal to everyone, without being boring.
