Starting from a few ideas and mathematical equations, the theory opens up a universe of possibility that never ceases to surprise physicists. The same is true of other contenders for a fundamental theory. We are lucky to live in such an intellectually fertile time. One thing most people don’t realize about physicists is how many of them are outdoors people, as often found on a hiking trail or a sailboat as in front of a blackboard. [download]
