Strand Notes

What is the true nature of space & time? These concepts are at the heart of science, & are often taken for granted even by practicing scientists, but, as this volume explains, they remain deeply wrapped in enigma. Their structure at both the smallest pre-subatomic & the largest cosmological levels continues to defy modern physics & may require revolutionary new ideas for which science is still grasping. This book provides fresh insights into the deep structure of space & time & its wider context.
