L'universo racchiude numerosi segreti e potrebbe perfino nascondere dimensioni inimmaginabili: universi paralleli, geometrie curve e inghiottitoi tridimensionali sono alcuni degli straordinari concetti che di recente sono divenuti protagonisti della ricerca scientifica. Oggi, delle leggi del cosmo capiamo molto più di qualche anno fa, eppure abbiamo molte meno certezze sulla sua vera natura. Nel suo percorso di ricerca nel campo della cosmologia e della fisica, Lisa Randall ha dovuto abbattere alcuni paletti della scienza ufficiale.
