I'm reading The Fabric of the Cosmos by Brian Greene..
about
theoretical physics, cosmology ( I love it) and string theory (hmm quite strange..)
this book is great! read it ;)

That book looks interesting.
I've been looking into String Theory myself, and came across "The Official String Theory website".
Mind-boggling stuff.

Superstringtheory

ps: Nice to see you back Grete. :)

I need to read some Kobo Abe. All the films that have been made of his novels are amazing.

oh thank you so much..:)
so you read something about the superstringtheory (which I personally found quite strange..) in anyway I recommend you this book by Greene > The Elegant Universe

 

I read it, and I found Greene's writing really clear :cool:

You really should. It would probably be easiest to read Brave New World first and then from there choose whichever book catches your fancy.
