Parallel Worlds

In this magnificent treatise on our physical universe from both macro and micro perspectives, narrator Marc Vietor comes across as a Cambridge don discoursing on the arc of physics over many years. His is a voice large and rich enough to encompass all--from the Greeks to Newton to Einstein to the cutting-edge string theorists (including the author) of today. The subject demands a talent like Vietor's to deliver it. His precision and skill in timing and pacing keep the sometimes difficult concepts and theories comprehensible. With Vietor, these abstract topics are made accessible and enjoyable for all levels of science aficionados. As a result, both the subject and the delivery are un-put-downable.
