CARMEL VALLEY, Calif., Feb. 25, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Theories are ideas that claim truths about certain issues. Unlike verified scientific information, theories are highly contested and are tentatively accepted because they are yet to be confirmed. Author Kai Woehler's book, The Search for the Meaning of Space, Time, and Matter sets itself apart from other theory books in that it offers a variety of scientific topics that are subjects of today's debates. Celebrate the amazing capacity of the human mind as Woehler's work quenches your thirst for a truly informative read.
The Search for the Meaning of Space, Time, and Matter is a comprehensive introduction to the history and development of the theories of the building blocks of matter, cosmic space and the nature of time, as well as the evolutionary process of some complex organisms. It provides the background for the most recent developments in the search for the origin of space and matter using Einstein's theory of the cosmos and the recent discovery of dark energy and the accelerated expansion of cosmic space.
The author Woehler introduces the String-theory revolution, which claims that innumerable universes exist, and that worlds may be emerging and disappearing like biological species. This concept of emergence suggest that our existence is extraordinarily rare and therefore precious. With this practical guide for students and professors, delve into discoveries that are distinctively Woehler's. Embark on an imaginary journey into the unfathomable depths of space, time and matter with Woehler's enthusiastic guidance. Grab a copy now! For more information, log on to www.Xlibris.com.
