UNTIL THE END OF TIME - BRIAN GREENE KARTONIERT...

From the world-renowned physicist and bestselling author of The Elegant Universe and The Fabric
of the Cosmos  a captivating exploration of deep time and humanity's search for purpose In both
time and space  the cosmos is astoundingly vast  and yet is governed by simple  elegant 
universal mathematical laws. On this cosmic timeline  our human era is spectacular but
fleeting. Someday  we know  we will all die. And  we know  so too will the universe itself.
Until the End of Time is Brian Greene's breathtaking new exploration of the cosmos and our
quest to understand it. Greene takes us on a journey across time  from our most refined
understanding of the universe's beginning  to the closest science can take us to the very end.
He explores how life and mind emerged from the initial chaos  and how our minds  in coming to
understand their own impermanence  seek in different ways to give meaning to experience: in
story  myth  religion  creative expression  science  the quest for truth  and our longing for
the timeless  or eternal. Through a series of nested stories that explain distinct but
interwoven layers of reality-from the quantum mechanics to consciousness to black holes-Greene
provides us with a clearer sense of how we came to be  a finer picture of where we are now  and
a firmer understanding of where we are headed. Yet all this understanding  which arose with the
emergence of life  will dissolve with its conclusion. Which leaves us with one realization:
during our brief moment in the sun  we are tasked with the charge of finding our own meaning.
Let us embark.
