Conversations on Quantum Gravity

My latest book, published in Cambridge University Press in 2021, about the quest for a theory of quantum gravity.

The book consists of 37 interviews to theoretical physicists about their views on quantum gravity and other problems in high-energy physics.

The book features interviews to 4 Nobel Prize winners and 1 Fields medalist and covers approaches such as string theory,  asymptotic safety,  loop quantum gravity and causal dynamical triangulations.

According to Ted Jacobson, Distinguished University Professor at the University of Maryland, “Conversations on Quantum Gravity is a unique resource for students and researchers of quantum gravity, for philosophers and sociologists of science, and for future historians of physics. Jácome Armas has admirably accomplished a herculean task: 37 interviews, peppered with his provocative questions informed by a broad appreciation of the scope of the physics problems and the panoply of approaches to solving them, and copiously referenced to the relevant literature.”
