In his epilogue, Gribbin touches on what were then the most recent developments of string theory, and introduces the transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics as the new "mythology" of our time. His argument does not refute the theory, but demonstrates how all theories can be true and mythological (depending on one's perspective).
