L' universo matematico. La ricerca della natura ultima della realtà
Tutto ha inizio con Galileo, secondo il quale 'l'universo è scritto in lingua matematica'. Una rivoluzione. Tre secoli dopo, nel 1960, il premio Nobel Eugene Wigner fa un ulteriore passo avanti, interrogandosi sull''irragionevole efficacia della matematica': se la matematica è lo studio formale di concetti puramente astratti, indipendenti dal pensiero umano, com'è possibile che sia tanto accurata - addirittura perfetta - nel descrivere il mondo reale, che è fatto di oggetti materiali? È qui che entrano in scena Max Tegmark e questo incredibile libro. Se l'ipotesi di una realtà esterna a noi è vera, allora la 'teoria del tutto' - la descrizione completa della realtà - deve essere indipendente dal nostro pensiero (visto che noi della realtà facciamo parte), e l'unica cosa completamente svincolata dal pensiero umano è, appunto, la matematica. Dunque, per Tegmark il mondo reale coincide con la matematica, non è solo descritto dalla matematica, ma è matematica. Con questa idea travolgente, discussa da tempo tra gli specialisti e ora finalmente fissata sulle pagine di questo libro per tutti, Max Tegmark ci conduce attraverso il passato, il presente e il futuro, dall'infinitamente grande all'infinitamente piccolo. Attraverso la fisica, l'astronomia e la matematica ci introduce con una prosa lucida e originale alla sua teoria del 'multiverso definitivo'.
