The meal in the hotel’s dining room, preceded by a couple of dry martinis in Fieldings’ private casino, is washed down with a Taittinger rosé 1960, followed by a Château Batailley 1959 to accompany his main course. It is set in 1969, and begins with Bond staying in the Park Lane hotel celebrating – alone – his 45th birthday over a dinner of pan-fried scallops with a beurre blanc sauce, followed by fillet of beef, rare, with pommes dauphinoises.

But for a book about math, this book contains very little math. Theoretical physics is the stereotypical math-heavy, hard-to-understand discipline. Now Nature spoke, and she said nothing, loud and clear. They thought they could hear her whisper when they were talking to themselves. They believed that Mother Nature was elegant, simple, and kind about providing clues. What failed physicists wasn’t their math it was their choice of math. The experiments didn’t reveal anything new. But where physicists expected a breakthrough, the ground wouldn’t give. The world prepared to ramp up the physics envy. They built accelerators, shot satellites into space, and planted detectors in underground mines. For decades physicists told us they knew where the next discoveries were waiting. T HEY WERE so sure, they bet billions on it. An acceptable book request includes at least one of the following: Low-effort book requests will be removed.
