Books I have read with short reviews. Probably useful to no one, but I like to keep track of what I have read and found interesting.
Review:
Loop quantum gravity! Gravity as seen through the lens of quanta! Granular universe! Right up my alley.
Words for which I sought help:
Polyphemus -- the name of the cyclops killed by Odysseus
Review:
This is sort of mishmash of topics. It is a collection of a series of articles. The thoughts are broad and one must keep in mind that this is a physicist who is trying to understand the world. This venture into other areas has some hits and some misses. Rovelli is a rather complex thinking and articulates his thoughts well. These articles are not meant to be convincing (I think), but seem more like ideas thrown out on the tide of humanity for us to consider. For that purpose, I can recommend the book.
