Publisher's Synopsis
Postulate that multiple dimensions exist. Once we postulate this certain consequences must follow. The idea of paper-thin little dimensions where the act of stepping or not stepping on an ant results in the creation of a new dimension is not rational. The logic is deficient, simply because every universe must embrace a spectrum, ergo, we arrive at a system similar to the one employed here. Given this the 'science' here is logically impeccable. A modestly powerful computer could labor weeks churning out details of the mechanics of such a universe without uncovering any inconsistencies. But none of this would constitute proof that these multiple universes are real. This is the trap of all computers. They can spell out in minute detail all the consequences of any postulation, but none of this proves the validity of the postulation. Outside validation is essential. There cannot be any contradictions with observable facts. And now the trap snaps shut! What do we say when the computer finds no contradictions between theory and observable fact? Worse yet, what if a dozen competing theories derived from the same postulation also work? Here we explore a few dimensions. Bon appetite!
