Carlo Rovelli, ‘Seven Brief Lessons On Physics’ Author, On Love And Beauty In Science

Science in 2016 very much resembles the spirit of the 1960s, according to Carlo Rovelli. The theoretical physicist is now a New York Times bestselling author for his recently released “Seven Brief Lessons on Physics.” The book, at just under 100 pages, covers the heady topics of general relativity and a new way of thinking about time in terms of heat and probability.

There's a renewed curiosity and a public awakening to the beauty at the heart of science, Rovelli, 59, said in an interview with International Business Times.
