Full Description

Explores the fascinating story of how the concepts of empty space, vacuum and the void reveal an incomprehensibly alien landscape in which all of existence is imbedded. } Patterns in the Void examines the great dark matter and dark regions that pervade the universe, from elementary particles to the immense areas of vacuum that make up most of deep space, and everything that is or is not. Like the void itself, the book ranges in temporal and spatial scales - from our human world, down to the molecular and subatomic world, and up into the farthest reaches of the expanding universe. Building upon the great theories that broke through physics and biophysics in the twentieth century, Patterns in the Void weaves the human element into understanding modern science, telling stories of ancient sacrifices, paranormal experiences, purported alien abductions, and more all part of the human dilemma to make sense about the vast unknown. }
