The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory by Brian Greene

2.0

I read this in college and actually attended a lecture by Brian Greene. Personally, I enjoy the true science, even if I get lost at times, more than the simplified version presented for the lay-person. As an aside, from what I've gathered from some recent articles, it seems that string theory as set out when this book was written is coming under some serious challenges. This should be expected for any book written about a more recent scientific theory, but as such, just be careful quoting this book as the end-all-be-all on the subject.
