Description |
In a recent book with this title, I consider some overarching ideas and
patterns that occur throughout physics, from classical to quantum and over
various sub-areas of the subject. These ideas connect to those outside of
physics so that non-physicists can also access some of their realizations,
including sophisticated ones, in physics. I will discuss some of these
topics such as : adding dimensions, states and transformations, stability at
saddles, symmetry and its breaking, and the role of time.
