The Fabric of The Cosmos: Brian Greene - Book Review

I've just finished reading this book. I liked it very much.

The reader has made its complex subjects so simple and understandable in simple English.

You don't need to be a Theoretical Physicist to under stand those subjects I've really wanted to know about but I've been afraid of dealing with hard Mathematics.

Subjects like Special and General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Space-time, Super String Theory and much more have been subjects kept me interested in science since I was a child.

And now I read about them all and understand everything thoroughly.

And I find more about things like Black-holes, Dark-matter and Casimir Effect very simple to understand.

The book has also made some ideas clear for me.

Something like the big-bang theory that didn't study the beginning of the universe but instead it's a theory that describes the moment after the explosion that started the universe.


Casimir Effect which has been unknown to me found to be the gravitational force generated between two plates that have small gap between them due to the Quantum Jitters in the filed between them.

Also I've known for the first time that the Super String Theory is the physicist's effort to make a uniform theory.

I've known for a long time that science has been searching for such a theory for many years but now I found that Einstein himself was the first one to search for such a theory. And that is String Theory was the effort for this search.

I have to admit that this book has fueled my enthusiasm to deep scientific reading again. Although it's not that deep. I have to say that its simple English and common language makes it perfect for non specialists to get the right idea about subject they are interested in.

That's why I totally recommend this book.

Mind to Matter

Only after one day of talking to a friend about that new topic I'm indulged in these days that I came to that great book.

And also in coincidence with the fact that I've just finished reading another book and I've been making the decision of what to read next.

And the answer has come to me in that best seller published June 2018, Mind to Matter.

It starts with mentioning that knowledge is the process dynamic change of mind.

That while you learn new things your brain makes new connections for them.

One Nobel prize winner physician stated that when you focus your attention learning new subject for one hour your brain doubles its connections for expanding neural circuits those involve that subject.

Also after you leave that subject without reviewing then your brain breaks those circuits after hours or days. 

This means that learning is building new connections while remembering is maintaining them by continuous reviewing.

To gain more from your training and knowledge you need to get your body involved in the process.

Your body makes its experience by feeling the emotion.

The feeling is the chemical change in body due to the active involvement of the body.

That means that in order to enhance your learning process you need to be actively engaged into that process in different ways
