From Brian Greene, one of the world's leading physicists and author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist The Elegant Universe, comes a grand tour of the universe that makes us look at reality in a completely different way.Space and time form the very fabric of the cosmos. Is space an entity? Yet they remain among the most mysterious of concepts.
Could the universe exist without space and time? Why does time have a direction? Can we travel to the past?
