IMPORTANT  This is a Summary Of Reality Is Not What It  The Journey to Quantum Gravity by Carlo Rovelli and not the original book.Take a historical journey down the winding road of modern physics.Since at least the fifth century BCE, there have been scholars using scientific tools to better understand our world and how the universe works. Prior to the turn of the twentieth century, quite a few developments took place, but it’s only from 1900 onward that the pace has really picked up.Thanks to Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity and the field of quantum mechanics, as well as amazing technological developments, the past one hundred years have brought us one remarkable discovery after another. These blinks are both a helpful catalog of the biggest revelations as well as a handy report card on where we now stand and the mysteries that still keep physicists up at night.In these book, you’ll •Which ancient Greek had some prescient ideas about atoms.•How the two pillars of modern science are in conflict.•Which “grains” make up the space around you, according to quantum gravity.
