"Few humans share Greene’s mastery of both the latest cosmological science and English prose." —The New York Times
Until the End of Time is Brian Greene's breathtaking new exploration of the cosmos and our quest to find meaning in the face of this vast expanse. Greene takes us on a journey from the big bang to the end of time, exploring how lasting structures formed, how life and mind emerged, and how we grapple with our existence through narrative, myth, religion, creative expression, science, the quest for truth, and a deep longing for the eternal. From particles to planets, consciousness to creativity, matter to meaning—Brian Greene allows us all to grasp and appreciate our fleeting but utterly exquisite moment in the cosmos.
Starts good but falls off a bit in the second half. There are countless of interesting as well as thought-provoking ideas. I'd just make it a bit shorter, because it sometimes seems you're reading in circles.
