Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In the fourth installment of the Science of Discworld series, Terry Pratchett presents a story that grapples with profound questions, enriched by extensive footnotes from mathematician Ian Stewart and biologist Jack Cohen. The narrative follows Marjorie Daw, a dedicated librarian, who unknowingly finds herself at the center of a crisis affecting both her world and Roundworld. On Discworld, tensions rise as the Wizards of Unseen University confront the consequences of their past mistakes in Quantum ThaumoDynamics, which inadvertently created Roundworld. Facing legal action from the Omnians, who argue that the Wizards' actions undermine their religion, the situation escalates. As a zombie and a priest prepare for a legal showdown, Marjorie is unexpectedly thrust into the multiverse's chaos. The story explores themes of divinity, the universe, and existence itself, featuring elements like world-bearing elephants, quantum gravity, evolutionary design, and dark matter. Readers can anticipate a whimsical yet thought-provoking journey that delves into the intricacies of reality and the quest for knowledge, all while maintaining Pratchett's signature humor and wit.
