La ecuación de Dios

When Newton formulated the law of gravity, he unified the rules that govern the heavens and the Earth. Today the greatest challenge in physics is to find a synthesis of the two great theories, based on different mathematical principles: relativity and quantum. Combining them would be the greatest achievement of science, a profound fusion of all the forces of nature into a beautiful and magnificent equation that would allow us to understand the deepest mysteries of the universe: what happened before the Big Bang? What is on the other side of a black hole? Are there other universes and other dimensions? Is time travel possible? To that end, and with his well-known ability to divulge complex concepts in accessible and engaging language, Michio Kaku traces the history of physics to the current debates surrounding the search for that unifying theory, the "God equation". A captivating story masterfully told, in which what is at stake is nothing less than our conception of the universe.
