Summary:
In this personal, visionary, and fascinating work, Neil Turok, Director of Canada's Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, explores transformative discoveries, from the nature of light, to the evolution of the cosmos, to the bizarre world of the quantum, and the emerging ideas which may yield tomorrow's technologies. Drawing from his personal experience, from confronting injustice in apartheid South Africa to becoming a renowned international scientist and educator, Turok explains why scientific research, training, and outreach are vital to our future economy as well as powerful forces for peaceful global progress.
