About the book

David Deutsch, theoretical physicist and pioneer of quantum computing, explores how human understanding is capable of generating ever deeper explanations of the universe. The book combines physics, philosophy, and the history of ideas to argue that creative knowledge is limitless and that reality is fundamentally comprehensible to the human mind.
