résumer en une formule d'une concision parfaite ? Une formule si simple, si belle, si efficace qu'on pourrait l'imprimer sur un tee-shirt, avec le succès qu'on imagine ? Nous n'en sommes pas là, mais qui sait si les astrophysiciens, forts de leurs prédécesseurs, ne sont pas en quête de ce nouveau Graal de la science que serait une telle " Théorie du tout " ? Avec passion, le journaliste et vulgarisateur scientifique Dan Falk a mis ses pas dans ceux des plus grands savants de l'histoire pour nous aider à comprendre l'univers dans lequel nous vivons. Des philosophes de l'Antiquité à Einstein, en passant par Newton et Maxwell, de la toute récente théorie des cordes au défi que constitue aujourd'hui l'articulation de la relativité générale et de la physique quantique, le rêve de pouvoir un jour rendre compte de tout, et par conséquent de tout connaître, a animé ces boulimiques de la connaissance qui ont consacré leur vie à la philosophie et à la science. Le récit de leur quête est une épopée des plus fascinantes dont l'intrigue reste - heureusement - non résolue : parviendra-t-on un jour à la connaissance ultime de l'univers ou s'agit-il d'une féconde utopie, moteur de progrès ? 2005.
