gravity and quantum mechanics were inconsistent with one another. Instead, we are discovering that they are so closely connected that one can almost say they are the same thing. Professor Susskind will explain how this view came into being over the last two
decades, and illustrate how a number of gravitational phenomena have their roots in the ordinary principles of quantum mechanics.</span></p>
