Btw, this book contains excellent footnotes and glossary. From the glossary:
Planck's length: ..., it is the dimension at which space becomes a quantum foam
and know physics break down. It is also the length of superstrings.
Planck's time: ..., it is the shortest time interval that can exist. Know
physics break down for time intervals smaller than Planck's time.
(Mathieu Ricard & Trinh Xuan Thuan, 'The Quantum and the Lotus: A Journey to
the Frontiers Where Science and Buddhism Meet',p.300)
