Wrapping your mind round it all takes some doing... but even with the lack of evidence it still makes far more sense than half of the bible, and seems more plausible aswell... it is after all a scientific theory... however, I do not see it as truth as of yet as not enough is truly known on the subject for me to say.
It is at least internally consistent, unlike the bible!
It is not however a scientific theory, since the defining characteristic of a scientific theory is falsifiability, which string theory is not (at least not yet!).
However, I would say that if you're interested and have a little basic physics knowledge (basic quantum mechanics, special relativity and tensors) get hold of this book.
