The Elegant Universe DVD
and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory
- The Boston Globe One of the most ambitious and exciting scientific theories ever posed - one that may be the long-sought "Theory of Everything" - gets a masterful and lavishly animated explanation that will excite scientists and non-scientists, alike. Beginning with simple and clear explanations of major concepts of physics, including gravity, electromagnetism, and relativity, The Elegant Universe illuminates one of the most revolutionary theories in physics today. Known as string theory or superstring theory, this startling idea proposes that the fundmental ingredients of nature are inconceivably tiny strands of energy, whose different modes of vibration underlie everything that happens in the universe. The theory attemps to unite the laws of the large - general relativity - and the laws of the small - quantum mechanics - breaking a conceptual logjam that has frustrated scientists for nearly a century. If string theory proves correct, the universe we see obscures a reality that is far richer and more complex than anyone every imagined - a universe witb numerous hidden dimensions, a universe in which the fabric of space can rip and tear, a universe that may be but one of many parallel universes. Join host Brian Greene, professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University and the best-selling author of The Elegant Universe, for this exciting and in-depth exploration of the groundbreaking new theory. Special DVD Features Include: - Bonus video - how the animation was created - Multidimensional Math activity - The Making of the Elegant Universe activity - Printable materials for educators - Access to The Elegant Universe Web site - Excerpt from the best-selling book - Closed captions and video description Approximate Running Time - 3 hours on 2 DVDS
