In plain English and with a minimum of mathematics, Gubser covers strings, branes, string dualities, extra dimensions, curved spacetime, quantum fluctuations, symmetry, and supersymmetry. He then gives readers a crash course in string theory and the core ideas behind it. Steve Gubser begins by explaining Einstein's famous equation "E = mc2," quantum mechanics, and black holes. After reading this book, you'll be able to draw your own conclusions about string theory. But it is unproven and fraught with controversy. It encompasses gravity and quantum mechanics in one unifying theory. String theory has been called the "theory of everything." It seeks to describe all the fundamental forces of nature. The Little Book of String Theory offers a short, accessible, and entertaining introduction to one of the most talked-about areas of physics today.
