I don't think for a layman (like I am too) there's not really that much to know about it, because you need lots of physics and even more mathematical knowledge to understand it for real, and even the people who understand it most, don't really understand it.
The basics are that all the tiniest particles we know from chemistry and quantum mechanics are made out of very tiny strings of energy that vibrate. The frequency a string vibrates, is conclusive for the particle it will be.
There's very much to find about that on the internet. But these are some links that can give you a start. I think the movies are very good, but they handle more than string theory alone, but also parallel universes.

nicely i think of maximum individuals confuse the two words. Dimensions alongside with top, width, and length are promptly observable to us in 3 dimensional area in case you communicate approximately time to be a length - considering not one of the others may well be significant with out fee of substitute, then we can say that the continua of area-time has a minimum of four dimensions. at the instant as the thank you to create a concept of each little thing or a Grand Unified concept as Einstein grow to be attempting to advance merely earlier he gave up the ghost, many super thinkers have began to objective to create universe fashions that permit for many added dimensions that are variety of "rolled-up" and which variously describe the 4 concern-unfastened forces or clarify the theoretical lacking mass of the universe or variously clarify how quantum strings or quantum loop gravity or countless different cosmologies extra healthy with what we at the instant understand because of the fact the regulations of physics... between the cosmological theories look to point that many universes exist. different perspectives refute the multi-verse concept. on a similar time as I easily have my very own concepts approximately which concepts i might guess on being likely - the reality is that no-one is commonly used with of that's actual.
