Abstract

<p>General relativity and quantum theory are the pillars of modern physics. Theoretical physics has developed, unifying different theories consistently. The next big challenge for theoretical physics is unifying general relativity and quantum theory. Superstring theory is a candidate for the quantum theory of gravity. At the same time, it is also a candidate for the unified theory of four forces: gravity, electromagnetic force, weak force, and strong force. I will explain how superstring theory was born and how it is along the idea of unification.</p>
