About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book is a summary of the latest developments and ideas on the problem of Quantum Gravity. … The author gives an extensive and extremely clear description of the experimental cosmological results. … nicely describes the limitations those experimental results impose on the creativity of the theoretical physicists. … if you want to learn where currently stand the boundaries of knowledge on the quantification of the gravitational field, and if you are not easily afraid of technicalities, this is the book you want to read." (Christophe Laforge, Belgian Physical Society Magazine, Issue 2, June, 2009)
