it's a great layman's primer on theoretical and quantum physics, and a damn good read. it's a short book and i guarantee it will change your outlook on some things in life. what you described is technically wrong, an atom is just that, an atom, he goes through all the types of particles that make it up, the wave-particle duality, matter and anti-matter, fundamental forces in the universe (gravitons, radiation, etc). he does touch on multiverses. but the "russian doll universes" idea doesn't have much weight, if there are other universes they exist outside our own with different laws of physics relating to the conditions of their formation/destruction and we probably have no way to perceive them.


Will definitely look into this. It seems to me that an atom being just an atom assumes that we understand all the things that make up on atom. I don't believe that to be true. Granted, I'm no particle physicist but I think we have much to learn about the various particles that make up an atom.
