On Being with Krista Tippett

The podcast discussed Greene's book, "The Hidden Reality," which explores the possibility of parallel universes and multiple realities, concepts that are considered potential implications of string theory. The conversation highlighted how these ideas are derived from mathematical findings, not mere speculation.

So the hidden reality is your latest book, right? Is your newest book? Yes, that's right. And that takes on this very kind of fiction science subject of parallel universe, a multiple, universe, a multiple realities.

And you go through several different iterations of that, different possibilities. I think as a fellow Star Trek fan long time.

Is it one of the implications of this is there is no such thing as a road untraveled? Right. And that comes from one particular flavor of multiverse that comes from quantum mechanics.

And again one of the things I emphasized in the book and it's worth restating now, these ideas are brought to us by the mathematics. We don't dream up these ideas and try to shoehorn them into equations. That's not how we work.

We sit there, the math jumps out of the page kind of grabs us by the pels, slaps us in the face and says, look at me what this is telling you is there might be parallel universes.
