About the book

Warped Passages

A New York Times Notable Book

“An engaging and remarkably clear account of how the existence of dimension beyond the familiar three (or four if you include time) may resolve a host of comic quandaries.—New York Times Book Review

The universe has many secrets. It may hide additional dimensions of space other than the familier three we recognize. There might even be another universe adjacent to ours, invisible and unattainable . . . for now.

In this brilliantly readable and accessible account, leading theoretical physicist Lisa Randall takes us into the incredible world of warped, hidden dimensions that underpin the universe we live in, describing how we might prove their existence, while examining the questions that they still leave unanswered. Warped Passages provides an exhilarating overview that tracks the arc of discovery from early 20th–century physics to the razor’s edge of today’s particle physics and string theory, unweaving the current debates about relativity, quantum mechanics, and gravity. Randall demystifies the science and beguilingly unravels the mysteries of the myriad worlds that may exist just beyond the one we are only now beginning to know.
