There are two scientific theories that, taken together, explain the entire universe.
The first, which describes the force of gravity, is widely known: Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.
But the theory that explains everything else--the Standard Model of Elementary Particles--is virtually unknown among the general public.
In The Theory of Almost Everything, Robert Oerter shows how what were once thought to be separate forces of nature were combined into a single theory by some of the most brilliant minds of the twentieth century.
Rich with accessible analogies and lucid prose, The Theory of Almost Everything celebrates a heretofore unsung achievement in human knowledge--and reveals the sublime structure that underlies the world as we know it.
