I doubt if I will understand much of it--I didn't her first--but I do remember one thing about the first. She argued for the possibility that some of the unperceived dimensions as per string theory might actually be rather "large"--instead of being tiny and coiled up, which is how they are usually posited by them such as make such theories. Hers is the one I want to believe since it seems to invite the possibility that perhaps one day we will really have "warp speed" a la Star Trek, and intergalactic civilizations & stuff as per the science fiction of my youth.
I particularly like the universe as envisioned by James Schmitz. See the WITCHES OF KARRES and his short story, "The Second Night of Summer" which for some reason is my favorite sci fi short story of all time.
