Professor Brian Cox uncovers some of the most extraordinary natural events on Earth and in the universe and beyond. From the immensity of the universe and the roundness of Earth to the form of every single snowflake, the forces of nature shape everything we see. Pushed to extremes, the results are astonishing. In seeking to understand the everyday world, the colours, structure, behaviour and history of our home, we develop the knowledge and techniques necessary to step beyond the everyday.

In this 24-lesson course aimed at non-scientists, noted particle physicist Dr. Don Lincoln of Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory covers more than a century of progress in physics, describing exactly how scientists reach the conclusions they do. He starts with the atom, which was long hypothesized but wasn’t definitively proven until a paper by Albert Einstein in 1905. That was just the beginning, as researchers probed ever deeper into the atom’s complex structure, leading to the weird findings of quantum mechanics.

Every physicist agrees quantum mechanics is among humanity's finest scientific achievements. But ask what it means, and the result will be a brawl. For a century, most physicists have followed Niels Bohr's Copenhagen interpretation and dismissed questions about the reality underlying quantum physics as meaningless. A mishmash of solipsism and poor reasoning, Copenhagen endured, as Bohr's students vigorously protected his legacy, and the physics community favored practical experiments over philosophical arguments.

Sean Carroll, theoretical physicist and one of this world’s most celebrated writers on science, rewrites the history of 20th-century physics. Already hailed as a masterpiece, Something Deeply Hidden shows for the first time that facing up to the essential puzzle of quantum mechanics utterly transforms how we think about space and time. His reconciling of quantum mechanics with Einstein’s theory of relativity changes, well, everything. Most physicists haven’t even recognized the uncomfortable truth: Physics has been in crisis since 1927.

All the matter and light we can see in the universe makes up a trivial five per cent of everything. The rest is hidden. This could be the biggest puzzle that science has ever faced. Since the 1970s, astronomers have been aware that galaxies have far too little matter in them to account for the way they spin around: they should fly apart, but something concealed holds them together. That ’something' is dark matter - invisible material in five times the quantity of the familiar stuff of stars and planets.

This landmark book is for those of us who prefer words to equations; this is the story of the ultimate quest for knowledge, the ongoing search for the secrets at the heart of time and space. Its author, Stephen W. Hawking, is arguably the greatest mind since Einstein. From the vantage point of the wheelchair, where he has spent the last 20 years trapped by Lou Gehrig's disease, Professor Hawking has transformed our view of the universe. A Brief History of Time is Hawking's classic introduction to today's most important scientific ideas.

There was a time when “universe” meant all there is. Everything. Yet, in recent years discoveries in physics and cosmology have led a number of scientists to conclude that our universe may be one among many. With crystal-clear prose and inspired use of analogy, Brian Greene shows how a range of different “multiverse” proposals emerges from theories developed to explain the most refined observations of both subatomic particles and the dark depths of space.

When Newton discovered the law of gravity, he unified the rules governing the heavens and the Earth. Since then, physicists have been placing new forces into ever-grander theories. But perhaps the ultimate challenge is achieving a monumental synthesis of the two remaining theories - relativity and the quantum theory. This would be the crowning achievement of science, a profound merging of all the forces of nature into one beautiful, magnificent equation to unlock the deepest mysteries in science: What happened before the Big Bang?

Today we are blessed with two extraordinarily successful theories of physics. The first is Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, which describes the large-scale behavior of matter in a curved spacetime. The second is quantum mechanics. This theory describes the properties and behavior of matter and radiation at their smallest scales.

Publisher's Summary
In The Quantum Universe, Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw approach the world of quantum mechanics in the same way they did in Why Does E=mc2? and make fundamental scientific principles accessible - and fascinating - to everyone.The subatomic realm has a reputation for weirdness, spawning any number of profound misunderstandings, journeys into Eastern mysticism, and woolly pronouncements on the interconnectedness of all things. Cox and Forshaw's contention? There is no need for quantum mechanics to be viewed this way. There is a lot of mileage in the "weirdness" of the quantum world, and it often leads to confusion and, frankly, bad science. The Quantum Universe cuts through the Wu Li and asks what observations of the natural world made it necessary, how it was constructed, and why we are confident that, for all its apparent strangeness, it is a good theory.
The quantum mechanics of The Quantum Universe provide a concrete model of nature that is comparable in its essence to Newton's laws of motion, Maxwell's theory of electricity and magnetism, and Einstein's theory of relativity.

Hopeless as an audiobook
Overall, I had to give up on this.
This was pleasingly more in-depth than most books/audiobooks on the subject, and I enjoyed the first few chapters. However, when it got onto presenting the actual maths, in the form of equations and deriving the Heisenberg uncertainty prinicple and applying it, it was no longer possible to follow. The poor narrator had to read out numbers, constants and equations and visualising them and the described maths was just too difficult. Referring to the written accompanying material may help, or just reading the book instead!
If you don't like detailed mathematical discussions and descriptions then avoid this one. I think it goes a step too far for most scientifically literate, interested members of the public. I did some of this stuff at university but it was still too difficult to follow in this format.

unless you have a higher degree in physics there is no point in buying this book. unlike Brian Cox's usual work, this is completely inaccessible to the lay reader. I can't understand how it got 5 stars.
I don't know why I cannot return it. I bought it less than 24 hours ago.

Fasten your seat belts!
The narration makes this book. It has pauses and emphasis in all the right places making the material much easier to understand than reading it yourself. Simon West has done a brillint job. I can't imagine how much preparation must have gone into it.
The accompanying pdf and narration work well together with the narration referring to the pdf not the book. It would have been nice to see the equations in the pdf as well as the diagrams. Even though the equations presented are very short an sweet, I had to write them down to have a chance of understanding them.
This is absolutely not phd level material. If you have studied GCSE maths or physics you should be able manage this. Anything that is new to you will have to be read a few times but that is the nature learning. This is not to be read as a novel. I had met Vectors and Complex numbers before so the hardest part of the book for me was getting to grips with the winding and shrinking clocks which was aimed at simplifying the wave mechanics - it didn't do it for me and won't be much help if you read anyone elses work. The book needed an appendix linking clocks and vectors.
Forshaw must have had a great influence in the content of this book. It is well structured and tells an absolutely fascinated story. Apart from the clock winding business there is non of the flimflam artistry of jetting around the world standing on mountain tops.
All in all, well worth five stars!

Appropriately awesome
I think this book now has to be an all time favourite of mine. It required quite a lot of concentration and re-listening, but was a wonderful experience having the quantum universe revealed and explained in such a structured and empathetic way. Samuel West’s narration is excellent, my only wish would have been to have some of the maths in the accompanying pdf.
Thoroughly brilliant.

I've read loads of science books. I mean loads. Hawking, Gribbin, Dawkins, loads more. This book is the worst. It doesn't deliver on its promise. The subject is described in the most dull style possible, and every time the narrative claims it will relate the numbers to real life, it does so only in the scantest fashion. I don't know who the target audience is for this book. Maybe someone who has avoided all information about quantum science before now, while still being comfortable with the maths involved, and is desperate to know how the maths applies to quantum physics, but has no interest in relating it to the real world (except for transistors) . That's niche.
Not recommended, although the narrator does his best.

Absolutely my speed
I'd been looking for an audiobook or podcast that essentially develops the concepts of Quantum Physics from start to where we are now, in the world of physics understanding, succinctly and precisely for a while. With Cox and Forshaw as the authors, it's very comforting to know that what is being said is accurate. I'm halfway through listening now, and I keep coming back for more.
As an amateur physics enthusiast, this is a brilliant way to link together and solidify a bunch of different things about quantum physics I vaguely knew, but didn't really know where they fit in.
The narration is actually very good as well. It takes something that might seem a little dry, and injects some enthusiasm and engagement. Kudos Samuel West!
Also, the only other review for this audiobook states the use of clock faces (as a way of visualising and also calculating probability waves) as being childish. In fact this is a very well established way of approaching this subject material. Feynman's way in fact. :-)

clock theory or Quantum theory?
why confuse an already difficult subject by talking about clocks for the majority of explanation regarding Quantum rules as clock rules.. childish and trying to be something it is not.
