The Lightness of Being - by Frank Wilczek (Paperback)

The Lightness of Being by Frank Wilczek is a groundbreaking book that revolutionizes our understanding of nature's deepest reality.

This Nobel Prize-winning physicist offers an authoritative and readable work for the general public, exploring basic questions about space, mass, energy, and the longed-for possibility of a fully unified theory of nature. Wilczek calls it "The Lightness of Being": matter is built from almost weightless units, and pure energy is the ultimate source of mass.

Space is no mere container, empty and passive; it's a dynamic Grid—a modern ether—and its spontaneous activity creates and destroys particles.

This new understanding of mass explains the puzzling feebleness of gravity and offers a gorgeous unification of all forces. With a command of both concept and language that few can rival, Wilczek weaves witty commentary into eloquent explanations.

Heavy on physics but light on math, this book offers an accessible though sophisticated look at the central ideas of modern physics.

The Lightness of Being is a delightful celebration of the wonders of physics, told by one who has helped define the current frontiers. Don't miss out on this mind-stretching journey that provides a revolutionary new vision of the universe.
