Editorial Reviews
Book Description
"At the Crossroads of Infinities" is a story about the struggle of ideas out of which the modern physical picture of the world was born. Can anything move faster than light? Is the universe finite or infinite? Is time reversible? What lies at the basis of the realities which we perceive as space, time or matter? These are the questions taken up in this book. And more, for it also tells of the roads of knowledge, of the way man has probed the mysteries of the infinitely large and infinitely small, yet at root integral world.
