"Few humans share Greene’s mastery of both the latest cosmological science and English prose." —The New York Times
Until the End of Time is Brian Greene's breathtaking new exploration of the cosmos and our quest to find meaning in the face of this vast expanse. Greene takes us on a journey from the big bang to the end of time, exploring how lasting structures formed, how life and mind emerged, and how we grapple with our existence through narrative, myth, religion, creative expression, science, the quest for truth, and a deep longing for the eternal. From particles to planets, consciousness to creativity, matter to meaning—Brian Greene allows us all to grasp and appreciate our fleeting but utterly exquisite moment in the cosmos.

Great book. I found myself less engaged with the question of whether thought can exist into the future in timescales that I can't perceive, but the road there was very interesting with a great dive into explaning entropy.

Good book but a bit too everywhere. Jumps from philosophy to physics saying interesting things but without a very direct link. Also, it starts turning a bit too subjective in the last third of the book. But first two thirds are 5-star
