“Science has a battle for hearts and minds on its hands….How good it feels to have Lisa Randall’s unusual blend of top flight science, clarity, and charm on our side.” —Richard Dawkins “Dazzling ideas….Read this book today to understand the science of tomorrow.” —Steven Pinker The bestselling author of Warped Passages, one of Time magazine’s “100 Most Influential People in the World,” and one of Esquire’s “75 Most Influential People of the 21st Century,” Lisa Randall gives us an exhilarating overview of the latest ideas in physics and offers a rousing defense of the role of science in our lives. Featuring fascinating insights into our scientific future born from the author’s provocative conversations with Nate Silver, David Chang, and Scott Derrickson, Knocking on Heaven’s Door is eminently readable, one of the most important popular science books of this or any year. It is a necessary volume for all who admire the work of Stephen Hawking, Michio Kaku, Brian Greene, Simon Singh, and Carl Sagan; for anyone curious about the workings and aims of the Large Hadron Collider, the biggest and most expensive machine ever built by mankind; for those who firmly believe in the importance of science and rational thought; and for anyone interested in how the Universe began…and how it might ultimately end.

Dr. Thomas Hughes is on top of the scientific world in 2013, although his personal life's a shambles. He's been awarded almost every honor available, including the Nobel Prize in physics for determining the constituent that carries gravity. Then why would his country's government be conspiring to ensure his death, and is there any way it can be avoided? Enter Kate...an attractive, intelligent lady from the year 2341 who has more than a professional interest in Dr. Hughes, yet is skeptical of his character because of certain requests made by Tom's friends and colleagues. When John, Kate's ... well, sort of brother, gets thrown into the mix, things take a decidedly strange and unusual turn. Apparently, he's deeply concerned about her preoccupation with Dr. Hughes, so during a rare indecisive moment, John unwittingly instigates an event chain that sends Tom and Kate on an escapade no one could have imagined. One-Sided Doors is a dramatic, romantic, humorous, science-fiction adventure. As the story unfolds, it will lock onto your eyes and relentlessly pull them across the pages all the way until the end, which is said to be: "simple, unexpected, light-hearted, and satisfying."
