The Elegant Universe Einstein's Dream Part 1-6 Legendado

The Elegant Universe is a book by Brian Greene published in 1999 which introduces string theory and provides a comprehensive though non-technical assessment of the theory and some of its shortcomings.

The book is divided into three themes in the following parts: Part I: The Edge of Knowledge Part II: The Dilemma of Space, Time, and the Quanta Part III: The Cosmic Symphony Part IV: String Theory and the Fabric of Spacetime Part V: Unification in the Twenty-First Century

Beginning with a brief consideration of classical physics, which concentrates on the major conflicts in physics, Greene establishes a historical context for string theory as a necessary means of integrating the probabilistic world of the standard model of particle physics and the deterministic Newtonian physics of the macroscopic world. Greene discusses the essential problem facing modern physics: unification of Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. Greene suggests that string theory is the solution to these two conflicting approaches. Greene frequently uses analogies and thought experiments to provide a means for the layman to come to terms with the theory which has the potential to create a unified theory of physics.

Começando com uma breve consideração da física clássica, que se concentra nos grandes conflitos da física dessa época, Greene estabelece um contexto histórico para a teoria das cordas como um meio necessário de integrar o probabilístico mundo dos modelos padrões da física de partículas e a física newtoniana determinista do mundo microscópico. Greene discute o problema essencial enfrentado pela física moderna: a unificação da teoria da relatividade geral de Albert Einstein e a mecânica quântica. Greene sugere que a teoria das cordas é a solução para essas duas explicações conflitantes. Greene frequentemente usa analogia e experimentos imaginários para tornar as explicações mais claras para leigos. A teoria das cordas tem o potencial de criar a teoria do campo unificado, o santo graal da física moderna.

O Universo Elegante foi adaptado para um programa com duração de 3 horas divididos em três partes para transmissão televisiva como parte da série NOVA da PBS em 2003.

Thanks for putting this up =)

Neat video! I am an artist on YouTube trying to promote my theory on the dynamics of light and time

This theory is based on just two simple postulates

1. The first is that the quantum wave particle function explained by Schrödinger’s wave equation represents the forward passage of time or Arrow of Time photon by photon

2. The second is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle that is formed by the wave function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event
