This copy of John Schwarz's website about the second superstring revolution was brought to you by Lubos Motl, a gradstudent at the Rutgers University and the originator of the matrix string theory. You can see his web page HERE. But you can find much more on his CZECH WEBSITE. By the way, he is an ALIEN. I appologize that the internet connection from California to the Czech Republic is slow but it is not my fault. :-) You can see the Schwarz's Second Superstring Revolution at Caltech, too.

Those theoretical physicists are at it again!

Once upon a time string theory was regarded as a passing phase in physics. Now the field is booming with more credibility than ever before, as deep mathematics wielded by string theorists have given us insights into black hole thermodynamics while telling us that strings themselves may not be the whole story!
