For anyone interested, I've just published a new book about the history of higher dimensions in physics. It chronicles the struggles by Einstein and others to pursue special and general relativity, then various attempts at a unified field theory of all known forces. It is full of interesting anecdotes, gathered from interviews with pioneering physicists such as John Wheeler and Bryce DeWitt.

 

The book is called:

 

The Great Beyond: Higher Dimensions, Parallel Universes and the Extraordinary Search for a Theory of Everything by Paul Halpern

 

Here's a link for more information:

Thanks,

Paul
