Summary
The poet of physics returns with a dazzling exploration of our place in the universe.
What can we really know about the world around us? Or is there beauty in daring not to know?
With clarity and lightness, acclaimed physicist Carlo Rovelli takes us on a journey of enlightenment, to the speculative frontiers of modern physics and the boundaries of thought. There is no fear in testing their limits, he suggests—not least because there may be no final ground to reach.

Critics Review
A broad-ranging virtuoso … “Interesting” barely touches the sides with Rovelli * New Scientist *
Rovelli can be counted on for a brain-melting moment or two … This slim treatise modestly seeks to recalibrate many of our foundational assumptions about the nature of reality and our relationship to it * NPR *
Carlo Rovelli is the best thinker out there articulating physics, philosophy, and literature. There simply are no scientists of his caliber who also are humanists of the first order. His prose has the enviable ability to expand the realm of the utterable and, with it, the reach of our intellectual experience – Hernan Diaz, author of Trust
Time and again during the reading of On the Equality of All Things, I found myself physically thrilled by Carlo Rovelli’s overarching ideas: that certainty in science is an illusion, that science will never manage to reveal the ultimate truths of the natural world, that there is no nobler cause on this earth than trying – Philip Marsden, author of Rising Ground
