Carroll argues that our refusal to face up to the mysteries of quantum mechanics has blinded us, and that spacetime and gravity naturally emerge from a deeper reality called the wave function. Snapshot Sean Carroll, in his book, Something Deeply Hidden, has taken it upon himself to introduce us ordinary people to the challenges physicists face in tackling the world of quantum mechanics. The holy grail of modern physics is reconciling quantum mechanics with Einstein's general relativity - his theory of curved spacetime. Step-by-step, the author sets out the major objections to this notion until his case is established. The Many Worlds Theory of quantum behavior says that every time there is a quantum event, a world splits off with everything in it the same, except in that other world the quantum event didn't happen. Putting his professional reputation on the line, Carroll says that crisis can now come to an end, that we just have to accept that there is more than one of us in the universe. Sean Carroll Something Deeply Hidden Quantum Worlds. Quantum mechanics underlies all of modern physics but major gaps in the theory have been ignored since 1927.
Carroll begins with the news that physics is in a crisis. He explains that there are multiple copies of you. His reconciling of quantum mechanics with Einstein's theory of relativity changes, well, everything. Summary: Carroll shows for the first time that facing up to the essential puzzle of quantum mechanics utterly transforms how we think about space and time.
