Superstring Theory: The DNA of Reality

<p>One of the most exciting scientific adventures of all time is the search for the ultimate nature of physical reality. The latest advance in this epic quest is string theory. Dr. S. James Gates, Jr., has presented more than 100 public talks on string theory, enhanced by a set of visual aids designed to convey to a lay audience the difficult mathematical ideas that underlie this subject. Are you eager to look over the shoulder of a prominent theorist at work—one who has a gift for explaining the subject to nonscientists? Prepare to be intrigued, enlightened, and amazed.</p>
