Reality Is Not What It Seems

Carlo Rovelli explores fundamental questions about the nature of reality, challenging our understanding of space and time. He traces the evolution of scientific thought from ancient philosophers to modern physics, including concepts like loop quantum gravity. The book presents a view of the universe where black holes are dynamic events, spacetime consists of discrete elements, and traditional notions such as infinity are questioned. Rovelli invites readers to rethink their perceptions of reality and engage with the mysteries that remain in the cosmos.
