苍茫宇宙可分为四层多重宇宙，每一层多重宇宙又包含无数层平行宇宙。也就是说，所有已经发生的和即将可能发生的，都有可能在不同平行宇宙中重演！而生命、宇宙和万物的问题的答案也隐藏其中！他不仅帮助我们理解其中常常令人难以置信的理论，而且还分享了一些他作为科学家生命中令人惊讶的胜利和失望。

在这场物理学和宇宙学的智力冒险中，迈克斯·泰格马克教授从“实在是什么”开始，从极大的尺度和极小的尺度开始，带领读者踏上了探索宇宙本质的神秘旅程，并得出了堪称惊世骇俗的结论：宇宙不只是被数学所描述，宇宙本身就是数学！无论你能否接受他的假说，这一幅宏大的宇宙图景都将让我们感慨宇宙与生命的微不足道。

Max Tegmark leads us on an astonishing journey through past, present and future, and through thephysics, astronomy and mathematicsthat are the foundation of his work, most particularly hishypothesis that our physical reality is a mathematical structureand histheory of the ultimate multiverse. 

In a dazzling combination of both popular and groundbreaking science, he not only helps us grasp his often mind-boggling theories, but he also shares with us some of the often surprising triumphs and disappointments that have shaped his life as a scientist. Fascinating from first to last—this is a book that has already prompted the attention and admiration of some of the most prominent scientists and mathematicians.
