About This Item
Synopsis
Three Roads to Quantum Gravity is a 2001 book by theoretical physicist Lee Smolin. He discusses three potential approaches by which a unified theory of quantum gravity, arguably the foremost issue in theoretical physics, may be realized. Approaches discussed include string theory, M-theory, and Smolin's preferred approach, loop quantum gravity. Smolin suggests that these approaches may be approximations of a single, underlying theory.
