While this has an interesting concept, I think it'll be too complicated for me. 'In her book, Henry provides details on why the combination of general relativity with quantum mechanics and the Mach’s principle suggest that new approaches to gravity are needed.'

'It explores the historical background of the main concepts of physics starting from ancient Greek time, the developments in the world of cosmology, and the incompleteness of the theories existing today.'
Science has a way of piquing my interest everytime. I think I'll try out this book.

I love how the author presented complex scientific concepts in a way a layman can understand.
Thank you for a well detailed review. I look forward to reading the book.

Definitely not my cup of tea, because physics is totally not my area of expertise. Sure, like everyone else, I had to study it at school, but was really glad when this was over and have no desire to return to it ever again. Anyway, congrats with BOTD!

This book offers a unique perspective, and I would love to gain a deeper understanding of how general relativity intersects with quantum mechanics and Mach's principle.

This book offers philosophical and scientific perspectives on the formulation of a theory of quantum gravity. It seems like a profound topic for a layman. It is impressive that the author considers that new approaches to gravity are needed.

I have always held an interest in science but, to this day, I still do not know the Theory of Relativity, the Theory of Quantum Gravity, nor fully understand Quantum Mechanics. I am excited that Megan Henry will teach me this.

"An Incomplete Theory" by Megan Henry seems to be a well-written book, but it is not my preferred genre. I like that it contains historical facts and it is well-detailed research. Congratulations on the book of the day.

'Official Review: An Incomplete Theory: The Search for Quantum Gravity (a story)' by Megan Henry presents the primary supporting points of the non-fiction book. It sheds light on the scientific content of the book. The author investigates the examination of philosophy and science in formulating a theory of quantum gravities. Apart from a scientifically grounded manual, this book is the real-life imagination of a curious human. Also, it explores the historical background of the main concepts of physics. It was great to learn that any layman can understand the author's work!
