As footballers talk of the double, or statesmen dream of Middle East peace, so physicists conceive of "Quantum Gravity". This proposed wedding of the two main strands of modern physics in one Grand Unified Theory is at once the scientists' major goal, and ultimate prize.Rather like the Middle East, however, the problem of Quantum Gravity has usually appeared intractable: reconciling the macrocosmic with the microcosmic being just too tricky. But now comes Lee Smolin, American academ... less info

In the mildly entertaining memoir Cad: Confessions of a Toxic Bachelor, former New York Times reporter and pop-culture critic Rick Marin chronicles the years of marathon dating and shallow living that followed in the wake of his failed "starter marriage." Marin moves through a series of urbane exploits and short-lived affairs, perfecting his trademark move of whipping off his horn-rim glasses mid-conversation in a "myopic gaze," holding court with his wingman Tad over the ... less info

Symbols are all around us: wedding rings, flags and logos are part of everyday life. We talk about olive branches, red cards and pearls of wisdom and we do symbolic things such as crossing a new baby's palm with silver or ringing in a New Year with bells. But some symbols, especially the ones extant in art and poetry, are less transparent and come from centuries-old traditions which pre-date widespread literacy. Animals, plants, patterns, natural phenomena such as rain, sun, colours and numbe... less info

Orginally published in 1976 and re-released as a Virago Classic, Lisa Alther's Kinflicks remains remarkably fresh and provides the perfect read for a plane ride into another time zone. The hilarious odyssey of Ginny Babcock, a Southern peach gone rotten, was a manual of self-determination and irreverent pleasure for 70s feminists. Incredibly raunchy and explicit about anal sex, orgasm, vibrators, Tantric sex, blue balls and lesbian trysts, it is hard to believe it was written before Annie Spr... less info

Blue, a wildly original first novel by Benjamin Zucker, is a richly illustrated, multi-layered story about aesthetics, love, brotherhood and tradition. The novel's main character, Abraham Tal, is (like Blue's author) a gem merchant in New York City. Tal's treasure is a Venetian Jewish wedding ring, a mysterious link to the traditions of his family and his culture; his search for the ring's origins and significance drives the book's main plot. Blue's design is highly unusual, and worth close a... less info
