Thad Roberts
Presented in clear and accessible language, Roberts offers the listener a voyage through the stages of human knowledge. He then examines the outstanding mysteries of modern physics, the phenomena that lie outside the borders of our current understanding (dark energy, dark matter, the Big Bang, wave-particle duality, quantum tunneling, state vector reduction, etc.) and suggests that the next step in our intellectual journey is to treat the vacuum of space as a superfluid - modeling it as being composed of interactive quanta, which, in a self-similar way, are composed of subquanta, and so on.
With this proposition, Roberts imbues the vacuum with fractal geometry and opens the door to explaining the outstanding mysteries of physics geometrically. Roberts' model, called quantum space theory, has been praised for how it offers an intuitively accessible picture of 11 dimensions and for powerfully extending the insight of general relativity, eloquently translating the four forces into unique kinds of geometric distortions while offering us access to the underlying deterministic dynamics that give rise to quantum mechanics. That remarkably simple picture explains the mysteries of modern physics in a way that's fully commensurate with Einstein's Intuition. It's a refreshingly unique perspective that generates several testable predictions.

Einstein's Intuition is chock full of references, citations and a fair amount of footnotes. My favorite quote came from Elbert Hubbard who said" The recipe for perpetual ignorance is: be satisfied with your opinions and content with your knowledge."

If you could sum up Einstein's Intuition: Visualizing Nature in Eleven Dimensions in three words, what would they be?
Thad Roberts has done an impeccable job of challenging the present "canon" of physics to hopefully inspire a younger generation of physicists to think intuitively about science and mathematics. I have read well over 200 books on physics and this book is the most original and thought-provoking.Who was your favorite character and why?
The most thought-provoking section of the book is in its attempt to guide the non-physicist on the value associated with rethinking physics from the standpoint of the quantum void. It's always been surprising to me of how little of the focus has been in physics on the quantum void or quantum vacuum. One hopes that the research at CERN will help in elucidating the interplay between the quantum vacuum and the standard model.Einstein's Intuition: Highly Innovative and Superb

The fact that Thad was able to define the 20 some-odd constants of nature using only the geometry of space pinpoints the fact that there is more to this QST theory than conjecture.
I deducted a full star for two reasons. 1) I would have liked more detail and insight on worm holes, quantum tunneling, dark matter and dark energy. 2) There were too many non-sequiturs in this book. For example a whole chapter on religion and how it has stymied scientific progress. I get where Thad is coming from since his QST is "out there" and not yet gaining the traction it deserves but these ad-homonyms only detract from his theory and add no real value to the reader, it serves mostly as a catharsis for Thad.
Overall a must read for anybody who has an ontological yearning for the origin of the universe and all of creation.

What did you love best about Einstein's Intuition: Visualizing Nature in Eleven Dimensions?
A new view of fundamental physicsWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Einstein's Intuition: Visualizing Nature in Eleven Dimensions?
I particularly valued the view that quantum mechanics was not a fundamental explanation of reality and the mysteries that plague the field have a straight forward explanation.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
My reaction was probably awe and wonderAny additional comments?
The frontiers of physics beyond Einstein's spacetime is perhaps the greatest scientific puzzle of this or any other time except perhaps that faced by Newton. Any person interested in the frontiers of knowledge will value this book.New science, making sense of 11 dimensions
