Publisher's Summary
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics written and read by Carlo Rovelli. These seven short lessons guide us, with admirable clarity, through the scientific revolution that shook physics in the 20th century and still continues to shake us today.
In this short, playful, entertaining and mind-bending introduction to modern physics, Rovelli explains Einstein's theory of general relativity, quantum mechanics, black holes, the complex architecture of the universe, elementary particles, gravity, and the nature of the mind.
In under 100 pages, readers will understand the most transformative scientific discoveries of the 20th century.
Not since Richard Feynman's celebrated best seller Six Easy Pieces has physics been so vividly, intelligently and entertainingly revealed.
Carlo Rovelli is an eminent physicist with an extraordinary ability to write about complex topics in lucid, clear prose. His book was top of the best-seller charts in Italy for months and has sold over 200,000 copies since publication in November. He is the head of the Équipe de Gravité Quantique at the theoretical physics department of Aix-Marseille University. It has sold in over a dozen languages.

Another classic of Carlo Rovelli
I would he is one of the best historian in a way to teach us on what we already know as a species.
I bought this book for the sole purpose of experiencing Carlo Rovelli explanation of reality.

True revelation to the mysteries in Physics
An excellent introduction for the most complex topics on physics. Triggering me to know more. Many thanks to Prof.Carlos Ravelli for this masterpiece.

Nice book to read
the book is really nice to read and the facts shared.
the only problem I had was the author's a bit not understandable pronunciation.
most of the times few words even sentences are hard to understand and if I didn't had a copy of the book, I wouldn't have understood half of the words/sentences by the reader.
thanks

Phenomenal
I really enjoyed this rather short yet intriguing listening time. It is my first step into physics and hopefully one of many.

Will have to listen again. This is not a book to listen to casually while driving
