God Does Play Dice With the Universe

A Startling New Picture of the World

Einstein Could Not Believe

But You Can Understand

Einstein in Princeton

 

I want to know God's thoughts; the rest are details.
--- Albert Einstein

 

Science has made a mighty advance since it originated from ancient Greece more than 2500 years ago. Yet we still live in Plato's cave today; we think everything around us moves continuously, but continuous motion is only a shadow of the real motion. How about the real motion then?

This book will lead you to walk out the cave along a logical and comprehensible road. After passing Zeno's arrow, Newton's inertia, Einstein's light, and Schrödinger's cat, you will finally reach the real world, where every thing in the universe, whether it is an atom or a ball or even a star, jumps in a random and discontinuous way. In a famous metaphor, God does play dice with the universe. In this new picture of reality, thing is not inert but active; it ceaselessly jumps by its own "free will". Moreover, such motion will entangle the universe into an inseparable whole in the form of time division. Is this new world not amazing?

Life is transitory. Everyone is a mere mote in the universe. But God gives us mind; thus we can see and understand the real world. The most happiness is not beyond this. So let us now head for the real world!
