Description
Summary:[Barrow] offers an updated version of his original Theories of Everything: The Quest for Ultimate Explanation (CH, Nov'91, 29-1566). It includes most of the developments that have occurred in the area since 1991. Among them are recent developments in string theory and the formulation of M theory; in fact, Barrow has a relatively long section on M dieory. Strangely, the long section on wormholes and baby universes has been deleted in this revision.
