Starting in about 2001, Pickover ’ s books sometimes began to include topics beyond his traditional focus on science and mathematics.

Pickover ’ s earliest books often focused on patterns that characterize mathematics such as fractals, Chaos theory | chaos, and number theory.

Some of Pickover ’ s later books often discussed " science at the edges ," including such topics as Many-worlds interpretation | parallel universes, quantum immortality, alien life, and elf-like beings seen by some people who use dimethyltryptamine.

In the 1990s, Pickover created virtual caverns from extremely simple numerical simulations that reminded him of the Lechuguilla Cave, pictured here.

In The Math Book and his companion book The Physics Book, Pickover explains that both mathematics and physics " cultivate a perpetual state of wonder about the limits of thoughts, the workings of the universe, and our place in the vast space-time landscape that we call home.

Pickover is author of hundreds of technical papers in diverse fields, ranging from the creative visualizations of fossil seashells, genetic sequences, cardiac and speech sounds, and virtual caverns and lava lamps, to fractal and mathematically based studies.

Pickover has also written extensively on the reported experiences of people on the psychotropic compound DMT.
