Beyond the Cosmos Reference Update

Some of the research findings reported in Beyond the Cosmos and on which its assertions are based were available only in preview and preprint form when the book went to press. Now the complete articles have appeared in peer-reviewed journals, and these references will of course be added to Beyond the Cosmos at its next printing.

For those who would like to make note of these references (for Chapter Three) immediately, I’ve listed them below:

• Callan, Curtis G., Jr., and Juan M. Maldacena, "D-Brane Approach to Black Hole Quantum Mechanics," Nuclear Physics B, vol. 472 (1996), pp, 591-608.
• Maldacena, Juan M., and Andrew Strominger, "Statistical Entropy of Four-Dimensional Extremal Black Holes" Physical Review Letters, vol. 77 (1996), pp. 428-429.
