If these words do not mean much to you, do not worry, we will define them in simple terms.This book describes loops quantum gravity and its applications to cosmology, black holes and spin foams without using formulas. It is concise and has a light style that makes for easy reading yet covering many of the cutting-edge developments in the field. It also addresses some of the controversies that surround these topics as they are incomplete science. 650 0 $a Quantum gravity. 650 0 $a Quantum theory. 700 1 $a Pullin, Jorge. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220706014433.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AB27E0ECA55F11EAA027EF1497128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
