Book Description
"A Brief History of Time", published in 1988, has been a landmark volume in scientific writing and in worldwide acclaim and popularity, with more than nine million copies sold. That edition was on the cutting edge of what was then known about the nature of the universe. Since its publication, however, there have been extraordinary advances in the technology of observing both the micro- and the macrocosmic world, confirming many of Professor Hawking's predictions. Eager to bring to his original text the new knowledge revealed by these observations, Hawking has written a new introduction, updated chapters throughout, and added an entirely new chapter on Wormholes and Time Travel.
"A Brief History of Time" has guided nonscientists everywhere to confront the supreme questions of the nature of time and the universe, taking them to distant galaxies, black holes, alternate dimensions — as close as man has ever ventured to the mind of God. This anniversary edition makes vividly clear why Professor Hawking's eloquent classic has transformed our view of the universe.

Stephen Hawking, one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists in history, wrote the modern classic A Brief History of Time to help nonscientists understand the questions being asked by scientists today: Where did the universe come from? How and why did it begin? Will it come to an end, and if so, how? Hawking attempts to reveal these questions (and where we're looking for answers) using a minimum of technical jargon. Among the topics gracefully covered are gravity, black holes, the Big Bang, the nature of time, and physicists' search for a grand unifying theory. This is deep science; these concepts are so vast (or so tiny) as to cause vertigo while reading, and one can't help but marvel at Hawking's ability to synthesize this difficult subject for people not used to thinking about things like alternate dimensions. The journey is certainly worth taking, for, as Hawking says, the reward of understanding the universe may be a glimpse of "the mind of God."

史蒂芬·霍金(Stephen Hawking, 1942- ),现任剑桥大学卢卡斯数学教授。他广被推崇为继爱因斯坦后最杰出的理论物理学家。霍金的主要著作有《时间简史》、《霍金讲演录——黑洞、婴儿宇宙及其他》和《果壳中的宇宙》。
……翻译作业!虽然我还是没明白怎么回事。
评分没想到写的如此深入浅出。。。
评分断断续续看了三周完成的书 科普书英文读起来很容易 霍金文笔很好时不时幽默讽刺的很有意思 如果想快速看此书 读下conclusion即可 我还蛮能接受他对于universe的no boundary yet finite的解释也没开始与结束 还有 虫洞这个概念太酷了
评分12.05-12.07
评分A love letter to outer space.
这本科普读物我前前后后看了6年。2003年初,我浏览了书中所有的彩图、注释及部分章节,这一切对于当时的我来说充满新奇却也过于深奥。2007年夏,我又拿起了这本平时只当是插画书信手翻看的精装硬皮书,认认真真地读了前五章,到第五章涉及量子物理时候彻底晕了。于是再次放下了...
评分初中时候看了第一推动丛书翻译的版本,很薄的一本书。那时看到第30页的时候看不下去了,理由很简单,突然看不懂了。为什么说突然呢,因为在看到全书的第二张图和相应的文字利用卫星的脉冲和月亮对其反冲的事件讲解相对论的时候,我完全不知道霍金想表达什么。再无数次的重复阅...
评分如果嫌《时间简史》看的费劲,推荐这个版本 1、简单 2、插图 3、全彩印 4、章节基本独立,相对短的篇幅讲完一个问题 当然,如果觉得这个简单,可以看原版,或者,还出过一个时间简史的插图版。

评分我在想如果霍金是个正常人的话,这本书会不会还有这么多人买。买这本书的人估计是冲着霍金而不是书的内容买的。为什么这么说呢?宇宙学的科普书籍,有比这本更好的书。 本身这本书的翻译就有问题,在这样的基础上,居然还有这么多人写些歌功颂德的书评,我怀疑写这些东西的...
