Why do we exist? Why this particular set of laws and not some other?-- and explains that scientists are approaching what is called "M-theory," a collection of overlapping theories (including string theory) that fill in many (but not all) of the blank spots in quantum physics; this collection is known as the "Grand Unified Field Theories." 650 0 $a Unified field theories $x Compact disc. 650 0 $a Mathematical physics $x Compact disc. 650 0 $a Superstring theories $x Compact disc. 650 0 $a Physics $x Compact disc. 700 1 $a Mlodinow, Leonard, $d 1954- 700 1 $a West, Steve. 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220112010018.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=49DC469AD10F11DF9739CBC46AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
