Sean Carroll is a theoretical physicist at the California Institute of Technology. His research focuses on fundamental issues in quantum mechanics, gravitation, statistical mechanics, and cosmology. He has wide-ranging interests, including in philosophy, complexity theory, and information.
Carroll is an active science communicator, and has been blogging regularly since 2004. His textbook "Spacetime and Geometry" has been adopted by a number of universities for their graduate courses in general relativity. He is a frequent public speaker, and has appeared on TV shows such as The Colbert Report and Through The Wormhole with Morgan Freeman. He has produced a set of lectures for The Teaching Company on dark matter and dark energy, and another on the nature of time. He has served as a science consultant for films such as Thor and TRON: Legacy, as well as for TV shows such as Fringe and Bones.
His 2010 popular book, "From Eternity to Here," explained the arrow of time and connected it with the origin of our universe. "The Particle at the End of the Universe," about the Large Hadron Collider and the quest to discover the Higgs boson, was released November 2012. "The Big Picture: On the Origins of Life, Meaning, and the Universe Itself" will appear in May 2016.

……不是说不好,但总觉得……cumbersome?
评分“颜色科学”的那一章不错: the Hard Problem is just a matter of conceptional confusion
评分3 billion heartbeats, time is ticking.
评分可以给5星的物理学科普读物。用laws of nature来讲universe, life (of origins), morality, religion, human beings, logic, philosophy。量子力学解释的很通俗易懂,对sci-fi常常提到的many-world和multi-universe做了区分。由于偶个人现在没心思看和religion, morality and philosophy的部分,就没给5星。还有,要注意的就是书里讲的理论,只是(因为无法证明的)众多理论中作者支持的一个。
评分以宇宙大爆炸理论、量子场论的大量结果为基础,对科学方法、人生意义等宏大的哲学问题做出了讨论。
肖恩·卡罗尔,真是深得我心。 我很久之前,就想过,对人进行量子层面的复制,所带来的同一性困境,结果他在这本书里居然也提到了,而且嵌入在一个“大图景”中,带着我进入了更广阔的境地。 在统一场论和“我该如何生活”之间,有着漫长的距离,两者常常看起来毫不相关,尽管...

评分這是一本很困難的書,作者的論述,由量子、原子、分子、有機體、生命演化、基因遺傳、神經科學、牛頓力學、邏輯推理、相對論、天文宇宙、以至延伸到神學、哲學等各層級領域,涉及的範疇既廣且深,最後作者以一個核心理論方程式做為結尾〈說似簡潔、卻很不易理解、且不會是最終...
