[Bestfrog]

What are the books that speak about string theory you would suggest me?
And the book against this theory?
(I'm an undergraduate physics student)
Thanks!

For undergraduate physics students, the best book is Zwiebach, "A First Course in String Theory". It is a serious technical book, but at an introductory pedagogic level suitable for undergraduates.

There is no fully technical book against string theory, but the best book (on a semi-popular level) against string theory is Woit, "Not Even Wrong".

Finally Jones, "String Theory for Dummies" is a great fully popular-level book which contains arguments both for and against string theory.

At the end, when you get tired of serious thinking about strings, you can relax by listening a great song about them:
