I want a McDonald's on Mars....

The book is about String theory. The intro (the video) deviates enough from that though to be interesting in its own right. I wouldn't say the video is "about string theory".

It's about string theory.

It's like a movie that has Jessica Alba in it. There's a plot and all, and sort of a point, but all we're interested in is her boobs.

String theory exists for one, major, abiding reason...

It makes the math easier.

Until they have proof though, I'm not holding my breath. Its interesting, but nothing to have a geekgasm over.

If 10 dimensions wasn't hard enough to comprehend, here's a program (3rd hour in the page) about the 11th dimension.

That page has enough documentary on the complexity of the universe(s) to last a few beers.
