内容简介

What is the ultimate destiny of our universe? That is the striking question addressed by well-known complexity theorist James Gardner in The Intelligent Universe. Scientists have traditionally offered two bleak answers: fire or ice. But Gardner envisions a third, dramatic alternative--the birth of a new universe. This unique viewpoint that has won praise from leading scientists, including Sir Martin Rees, Britain's Astronomer Royal and Templeton Prize winner Paul Davies. The Intelligent Universe is both a journey to the past and a road map for the future of the universe. It explores the mysteries of the cosmos and of consciousness, and provides a frank and fascinating look at where our minds are taking us.
