I'm surprised that few people have posted on this forum. Let me get the ball rolling. Does anyone believe physicists will come up with a final theory of everything? I think the best candidate so far is Superstring Theory, which I personally don't know much of the details or mathematics.
I read in [i:e69b83ac14]The End of Sciencethat it would take a machine the size of the solar system to experimentally verify Superstring Theory. Has anyone read Brian Greene's [i:e69b83ac14]The Elegant Universe :?: It's sitting on my expansive bookshelf right now. It's a popular book on String Theory.
Another good book is [i:e69b83ac14]Dreams of a Final Theory by Nobel Laureate Steven Weinberg. But I ask, why all the fuss? Why do we want a theory that depends on no other theories? Will a final theory of everything really make everyday life better for people :?:
